    Summary

    Computed tomography (CT) typically shows specific patterns for adrenoleukodystrophy diagnosis. However, this study identified an unusual CT presentation with extensive calcifications instead of the classic low density areas.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Neurology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Computed tomography (CT) is crucial for diagnosing adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD).
    • The classic CT pattern involves symmetrical parietooccipital hypodensity with enhancement.
    • Atypical presentations of ALD on CT are infrequently reported.
