Discriminating chorea-acanthocytosis from Huntington's disease with single-case voxel-based morphometry analysis

Chorea-acanthocytosis is clinically difficult to distinguish from Huntington's disease because these disorders have similar symptoms and MR imaging findings. We evaluated the usefulness of single-case voxel-based morphometry (VBM) analysis for differentiating the two diseases as well as VBM analysis.
