Computed tomography (CT) in late infantile metachromatic leucodystrophy.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Differential diagnosis between vascular parkinsonism (VP) and Parkinson's Disease (PD) is often difficult, due to the overlap in clinical presentation and the lack of specificity at neuroimaging. Aim of the study was to identify a possible reliable marker at SPECT imaging useful to distinguish the two condit...
