Noninvasive CT diagnosis of infantile Alexander disease: pathologic correlation

Noninvasive computed tomography provided the initial, accurate diagnosis of a necropsy-proven case of infantile Alexander disease, demonstrated serial changes in the intensity and distribution of leukodystrophy, and documented a progressive alteration of brain density from abnormally high attenuation to abnormally low attenuation as the disease advanced.
