Overview
CT scan is not a good diagnosis study for diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. No correspondence is between CT findings, severity of the clinical picture and postmorten gross brain examination in patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. In rare cases, findings on brain CT scan suggestive of of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease include: Mild sulcal widening, ventricular enlargement and moderate cortical atrophy. Brain CT scan is of value for the diagnosis of other potentially reversible illnesses clinically resembling Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
CT scan
- CT scan is not a good diagnosis study for diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.[1]
- No correspondence is between CT scan findings, severity of the clinical picture and postmorten gross brain examination in patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
- In rare cases, findings on brain CT scan suggestive of of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease include:[1]
- Mild sulcal widening
- Ventricular enlargement
- Moderate cortical atrophy
- Brain CT scan is of value for the diagnosis of other potentially reversible illnesses clinically resembling Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.[2]
