Overview
MRI findings of galactosemic patients indicate abnormal myelination secondary to the inability to produce sufficient and/or normal galactocerebroside due to defective enzyme activity.
MRI Findings[1] for Galactosemia
- Mild cerebral atrophy
- Cerebellar atrophy
- Multiple small hyperintense lesions in the cerebral white matter on T2-weighted images
- Reduced gray matter volume[2]
