| Abstract: | Learning objectives: Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare spongiform encephalopathy which is thought to be mediated via prions. It presents with a rapidly progressive dementia, often resulting in death within a couple of months from diagnosis. It is crucial that the reporting radiologist is not only aware of the condition, but also able to recognise the different sub-types of this disease. |
