Diffuse Lewy body disease: clinical features in 15 cases.

Fifteen cases of diffuse Lewy body disease were diagnosed on pathological grounds during a single year in one health district. The range and frequency of clinical features contrast strikingly with previous reports.

Clinical features and magnetic resonance image analysis of 15 cases of demyelinating leukoencephalopathy induced by levamisole

The aim of this study was to explore the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for levamisole-induced demyelinating leukoencephalopathy. The clinical features and MRI findings of 15 patients with levamisole-induced demyelinating leukoencephalopathy were retrospectively analyzed. The abnormality rate of the patients was demonstrated to be 100% by MRI, and scattered multiple cerebr...
