Chaser

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of the brain in three children with a missing copy of Chaser. Scans taken at 8 months or 4 years of age (top row) show structural changes in the brain: shrunken frontal regions, a relatively small brainstem (indicated by asterisks), and abnormal development of the nerve sheath (myelin) in deep areas of the brain (indicated by arrows). These changes were barely visible in scans taken at XNUMX month of age (bottom row)
