Serial diffusion-weighted MRI and SPECT findings in a Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease patient with V180I mutation

We report serial changes of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in a patient with Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease with V180I mutation (CJD180). DWI abnormalities in our patient were more predominantly observed in the left cerebral cortex than left basal...
