The study enrolled all 36 patients with suspected vCJD who were referred to the National CJD Surveillance Unit in the UK.

The 57 controls consisted of:

  • patients who had been suspected of having vCJD but were subsequently received other diagnoses
  • patients with CJD other than the new variant form

T2 MRI scans of the brain were analysed separately by two neuroradiologists who then met and came to a consensus view on the presence and degree of pulvinar high signal.
