The present study describes a case of AIDS with asymptomatic intracranial focal lesions. The DDD-enhancement CT technique detected the lesions as inflammatory or neoplastic.

Abstract

The present study describes a case of AIDS with asymptomatic intracranial focal lesions. The DDD-enhancement CT technique detected the lesions as inflammatory or neoplastic. A subsequent MR demontrated the vascular nature of the intracranial findings. MR in the neuropathology of AIDS can be of primary importance in the detection of the intracranial focal lesions, thus avoiding a cerebral stereotaxis needle biopsy.
