Abstract
We report a 41-year-old man of presymptomatic spinocerebellar ataxia type 1. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) verified decreased fractional anisotropy of cerebellar afferent and efferent pathways compared to 5 age-matched healthy controls while conventional MRI revealed normal brain. DTI was valuable in detection of early microstructural damage of cerebellar pathways.Entities:
