MRI based approach for diagnosis of white matter metabolic disorders
1. Is it de-myelination or dys-myelination?2. Is it dys-myelination or hypo-myelination?3. Is it permanent hypo-myelination or delayed
myelination?4. Is there a predominant localization (frontal,
parieto-occipital, periventricular, subcortical or diffuse)?
5. Special features.

Delayed myelination Vs hypomyelination
• Repeat MRI after 6 months.• Delayed myelination myelination progression.• Hypomyelination no myelination progression.• DD in these 2 conditions is quite different.
![Page 22: White matter disorders](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110118/554b5e28b4c905e9388b51fd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Delayed myelination
• Delayed myelination is a non specific finding associated with global developmental delay.
Causes:• Chromosomal abnormalities (e.g. trisomy 21).• Metabolic disorders (e.g. phenylketonuria).• Acquired causes (e.g. HIE).
![Page 23: White matter disorders](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110118/554b5e28b4c905e9388b51fd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Leukodystrophy
Genetic diseases with white matter morphological changes.
1. Myelin dysfunction due to enzymatic abnormality2. Demyelination – destruction of normally formed myelin3. Dysmyelination – loss of defective myelin
Enzymatic defects can be in:
• Peroxisomes• Mitochondria• Lysosomes.

End stage disease
• End stage white matter disease of any cause results in diffuse (superficial and deep), bilateral white matter damage that is completely nonspecific.
• End stage cortical grey matter disease will often have abnormal white matter appearance, as Wallerian degeneration of axons causes diminished white matter volume and mild to moderate hyperintensity on FLAIR and T2 weighted images
