    Author: Gabrielli O, Salvolini U, Coppa GV, Catassi C, Rossi R, Manca A, Lanza R, Giorgi PL.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1990; 21(1):16-9. PubMed ID: 2287531.
    Abstract:
    We reported on thirteen children affected with malformative syndromes associated with mental retardation. MRI examination showed in all of them different types of anomalies; agenesis of corpus callosum, ventricular dilatation and cerebral matter alterations were the most frequent findings. The authors give a brief description of the clinical reports and of the anomalies observed with MRI; they conclude that MRI seems to be a valuable tool especially for the study of the alterations of the cerebral matter and their correlation with mental retardation.
