Spatial and Temporal Distribution of White Matter Lesions in NOTCH2NLC-Related Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusion Disease

Our analysis revealed the radiologic characteristics and spatial distribution of WMLs and demonstrated significant correlations between FLAIR hyperintensity volume and age/cognitive levels in NIID. Long-term retrospection revealed 3 types of gradual WML expansion patterns while MELAS-like episodes cause rapid WML aggravation. Although results should be confirmed in a larger cohort, these insights enhance understanding of NIID's clinical-radiologic relationships and pathogenesis.
