A critical review of white matter changes in Huntington's disease
Huntington's disease is a genetic neurodegenerative disorder. White matter alterations have
recently been identified as a relevant pathophysiological feature of Huntington's disease, but …

Diffusion tensor imaging in presymptomatic and early Huntington's disease: Selective white matter pathology and its relationship to clinical measures
Atrophy of cortical and subcortical gray matter is apparent in Huntington's disease (HD)
before symptoms manifest. We hypothesized that the white matter (WM) connecting cortical …

In vivo evidence for the selective subcortical degeneration in Huntington's disease
Although Huntington's disease is largely considered to be a subcortical disease, there is no
clear consensus on whether all deep grey matter loss is a direct downstream consequence …

White matter connections reflect changes in voluntary-guided saccades in pre-symptomatic Huntington's disease
Huntington's disease is caused by a known genetic mutation and so potentially can be
diagnosed many years before the onset of symptoms. Neuropathological changes have …

Regional white matter change in pre-symptomatic Huntington's disease: a diffusion tensor imaging study
The pathology of Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by diffuse brain atrophy, with
the most substantial neuronal loss occurring in the caudate and putamen. Recent evidence …
