Info
There is substantial volume loss in the basal ganglia, particularly the lentiform nuclei and caudate nuclei. This is confirmed on frontal horn width to intercaudate ratio (FH:CC = 1.9, normal range 2.2-2.6) and intercaudate distance to inner table ratio (CC:IT = 0.17, normal range 0.09-0.12). Otherwise, the brain volume is preserved. No inter or extra-axial mass or focal abnormality.
