متن کاملCongruence of the topography of intracranial calcifications and epileptic foci.
Nodular intracranial calcifications (NIC) are frequent findings in CT scans of epileptic patients in countries where granulomatous central nervous disease such as neurocysticercosis is endemic. In 34 consecutive epileptic patients with NIC submitted to EEG, CT and CSF analysis, the correlation between the electroclinical localization of the focus and the topography of the NIC was studied. Twent...
