Possible Creutzfeld-Jakob Disease-MRI

This is patient presented with progessive dementia and myoclonic jerks. MRI revealed FLAIR and DWI hyperintensity in the caudate nucleus, putamen. Possibility of CJD was suggested. Diffusion abnormalities were not so  prominent which are probably due to intermediate to late stage of the disease and myoclonic jerks were also present.
