  • Title: Susac syndrome: a case report and PET imaging findings.
    Author: Dielman C, Laureys G, Meurs A, Bissay V, Ebinger G.
    Journal: Acta Neurol Belg; 2009 Sep; 109(3):226-30. PubMed ID: 19902818.
    Abstract:
    We describe the case of a twenty-year-old woman with subacute encephalopathy, who subsequently developed hearing loss and ophtalmopathy. The clinical triad and typical findings on magnetic resonance imaging and cerebrospinal fluid analysis led to the diagnosis of Susac syndrome. Brain positron emission tomography showed abnormalities which are comparable with other types of central nervous system vasculitis, and distinct from those found in multiple sclerosis.
