title: Cerebral atrophy in motor neuron disease evaluated by computed tomography.
abstract: Thirty-two (64%) of 50 patients with motor neuron disease showed various patterns of cerebral atrophy (cortical, ventricular or both) at CT examination. The incidence of cerebral atrophy, particularly cortical atrophy, in motor neuron disease was greater than in a matched control group.
