Background and objective:
 MR based radiomics can potentially response to treatment in intracranial tuberculoma, but very scarce literature is available this regard. The purpose of study was determine whether radiomic features be used predict antituberculosis (AT) treatment.
 Methods:
 Data patients with tuberculomas who underwent imaging AT at our institution during the last 10 ...

The radiological abnormalities reported in CNS tuberculosis and their pathological correlates are discussed. Focal tuberculous involvement of the CNS without formation of tuberculoma is rare. The MR features in this case were also distinctly unusual for CNS tuberculosis. Therefore, histological confirmation of all lesions thought to be a low grade glioma is mandatory.

We report a rare case of oculomotor nerve palsy and choroidal tuberculous granuloma associated with tuberculous meningoencephalitis. A 15-year-old male visited our hospital for an acute drop of the left eyelid and diplopia. He has been on anti-tuberculous drugs (isoniazid, rifampin) for 1 year for his tuberculous encephalitis.
