Abstrakt		Discrimination between myopathy and neuropathy may be difficult especially in the early stages of the disease. Therefore it is reasonable to study the posibility of assessment of these disorders by means of magnetic resonance imaging. Children with a myopathy and children with a neurodegenerative disorder were selected for the study and compared to healthy volunteers. Measurments were performed on a small Bruker imaging system operating at 2.35 T, and T1 weighed images on the lower etremities were recorded. Images obtained on the diseased extremities were clearly distingished from the images from healthy children. Furthermore, in myopathies a selective degeneration of muscles is definietly different from the nonselective involvement of all muscles in the spinal muscular atrophy.
