The leopard skin sign (also known as tigroid pattern or stripe sign) results from dark-spots or stripes (spared perivascular white matter) within bright demyelinated periventricular white matter on T2W images. It is characteristically seen in:
- metachromatic leukodystrophy
- Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease
- autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix
