Abstract

T2-weighted MR imaging (T2WI) in patients presenting with variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) can demonstrate high signal intensity lesions in both pulvinars and/or medial side of thalami (the pulvinar sign) at a high rate. Nevertheless, since patients with dementia are frequently uncooperative and restless, the T2WI sequence may often fail. This article presents a clinically effective case involving application of PROPELLER MRI with correction of reduced motion artifacts to exclude the pulvinar sign.
