The early stage of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is generally characterised by progressive changes in behaviour and intellectual function. While only a few patients have stroke-like onset, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease with initial monoparesis has been described. In this report, a patient with an unusual sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease with typical magnetic resonance imaging findings, positive cerebrospinal fluid 14-3-3 brain protein, sharp-wave complexes in electroencephalogram, and initial right hemiparesis is reported.

Conventional angiography is regarded as the gold standard in vascular imaging but it is invasive, and difficulty may be encountered in the evaluation of aortic occlusion disease. Superior mesenteric artery aneurysm is an uncommon disease, which can result in life-threatening haemorrhage after rupture. With the rapid development of computed tomography angiography (CTA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), high-quality images of the vascular system can be obtained in a non-invasive manner. We report a case of Leriche's syndrome with concomitant superior mesenteric aneurysm using contrast-enhanced 3-D CTA and MRA, with digital subtraction angiography correlation.

The imaging findings of focal intrahepatic extramedullary haematopoiesis (EMH) in a 51-year-old woman with beta-thalassaemia intermedia are described with particular reference to MRI and CT. Bone marrow colloid scintigraphy was unhelpful in confirming the diagnosis, which was made from fine needle aspiration. This is the first description of stellate scars occurring in an EMH lesion. A review of the radiological appearances of this rare condition is presented.
