Hot cross bun sign pons
• The hot cross bun sign refers to the MRI appearance of the pons in a variety of neurodegenerative diseases.
• T2 hyperintensity forms a cross on axial images through the pons, representing selective degeneration of pontocerebellar tracts. It has been described in 1:
• multiple-system atrophy (MSA)• spinocerebellar atrophy types 2 and 3• parkinsonism secondary to vasculitis• variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD)
Thyroid ophthalmopathy cocola bottle sign
