ABSTRACT
It is believed that differentiating tuberculoma, abscess, metastatic tumor and glioma is often difficult without exisional biopsy. The authers report two cases of tuberculoma in the cerebral hemisphere which were treated surgically. Differentiating characteristics of intracerebral tuberculoma in MR imaging and CT scans are also discussed. With the references reviewed, the MR imaging features of the tuberculoma were found to be distinct from those of abscess, metastatic tumor, glioma and cysticercus granuloma.
Key Words: Intracerebral tuberculoma; MR imaging; Differentiation
