[Nuclear magnetic resonance in the Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome].
Two patients (mother and son) with Hallervorden-Spatz's syndrome were examined both via CT and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), using different measuring modes. In the patient with progressing disease pathological findings were seen in the right and left putamen with CT and NMR. All examinations in the mother with a less progressive syndrome were without any result. Information  obtained via NMR did not yield significantly more relevant data than computed tomography.
