Abstract

Investigators from Children’s National Health System Washington, DC, USA: Harvard University, Boston, USA; Leeds Teaching Hospitals, UK; and other international centers review a series of patients with MRIs selected from IRB-approved leukodystrophy biorepositories to identify MRI patterns for recognition of early-onset Aicardi-Goutieres (A-G) syndrome and scored for a panel of radiologic predictors.
