Magnetic resonance imaging in cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis

Phillip D. Swanson, MD, PhD and Laurence D. Cromwell, MD

Division of Neurology (Dr. Swanson) and Department of Radiology (Dr. Cromwell), University of Washington, Seattle, WA.

In a patient with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed findings of demyelination in the cerebral white matter, which was also hypodense on CT. The MRI abnormality seemed to be clinically significant in this patient with progressive dementia and abnormal gait.

Accepted for publication April 18, 1985.
