Sterile brain abscess due to juvenile xanthogranuloma: DWI characteristics.

Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is a disorder of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis that usually displays as a self-limiting course in children. Rare systemic involvement implies poor prognosis. Although conventional and spectroscopic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of JXG in CNS have been described, diffusion imaging of intracranial JXG has not been reported.
