Quantitative diffusion tensor imaging for evaluation of motor function in patients with brain infarcts.
To evaluate the quantitative diffusion value in ipsilateral cerebral peduncle of patients with differing motor function abilities and analyse the thresholds discriminating the poor motor function disability. ⋯ The ipsilateral FA value and FA ratio were feasible and better imaging indices in discriminating patients with poor motor function ability.

Review Case ReportsWhite matter disorders with autosomal dominant heredity: a review with personal clinical case studies and their MRI findings.
Leukoencephalopathies are a heterogeneous group of severe encephalopathy syndromes with myelin, axonal or vascular pathology, typically with extensive white matter lesions on MRI T2-FSE and/or -FLAIR sequences. ⋯ The diagnosis within the group of leukoencephalopathies thus characterized by MRI relies mainly upon clinical and genetic analysis. The differential diagnosis against treatable leukoencephalopathies is increasingly relevant.
