Overview
Common MRI findings in patients with cryptococcal meningitis include:
MRI
The common MRI findings in patients with cryptococcal meningitis include:[1]
- Virchow-Robin dilatation : Virchow Robin spaces are CSF spaces that accompany blood vessels as they perforate the brain substance, dilation of these spaces suggest microangiopathy.
- Hydrocephalus
- Intracerebral nodules
- Pseudocysts
