Abstract
Unlabelled: Recognized magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities in the brains of patients with Fabry disease include the consequences of infarction and haemorrhage, non-specific white and grey matter lesions, vascular anomalies, in particular dolicho-ectasia, and a characteristic appearance of the posterior thalamus. A preliminary analysis of MRI findings in patients registered in FOS, the Fabry Outcome Survey, indicates that most patients had abnormal scans (25/47). The commonest abnormality, in males and females, was the presence of cerebral white matter lesions, the number of which increased with patient age.
Conclusion: MRI is a valuable resource for assessing the CNS complications of Fabry disease, and their response to time and treatment.
