2015年3月1日 · CT and MRI can both demonstrate the clearly marginated cyst with thin wall (2–4 mm), which usually does not show contrast enhancement. The cyst fluid is similar to the …

2017年3月19日 · Evaluation of intraventricular and subarachnoid NCC is improved with magnetic resonance (MR) cysternography techniques. Advanced MR imaging can be helpful in …

Seizures are the most common manifestations of NCC, followed by headache, focal deficits and signs of intracranial hypertension. The diagnosis of NCC relies upon a combination of clinical …

In the granular nodular stage of NCC, the main imaging characteristics for differential diagnosis include early stage granulomatous diseases and metastases that present as contrast …

2023年5月1日 · Quantitative MRI approaches have the potential to elucidate the lesser-understood epileptogenic mechanisms of NCC. This review will summarise the current …

Correlation with chest X-Ray, CSF analysis and clinical symptoms aid in diagnosis. Laboratory tests like ELISA (for NCC), serum or CSF immune assay for NCC (e g.

2010年10月6日 · Neurocysticercosis is discussed and illustrated in terms of epidemiologic features, agents of infestation, disease course, pathophysiologic features, classification, …
