Restricted diffusion in Canavan disease.
[canavan disease]
Canavan
disease
is
a
megalencephalic
leukodystrophy
due
to
deficiency
of
the
enzyme
aspartoacylase
.
Proton
MR
spectroscopy
finding
of
elevated
N-
acetyl-
L
:
-
aspartate
is
considered
diagnostic
of
Canavan
disease
.
We
report
a
case
of
Canavan
disease
,
which
showed
restricted
diffusion
in
diffusion-weighted
imaging
and
discuss
the
cause
of
it
.
