Popis:	Computerized tomography CT with contrast enhancement is of great value in the diagnosis and follow-up of brain abscess. Wc have reviewed 58 CT Scans done on 17 patients and have observed four different patterns depending on the stage of the abscess. The CT scan may show an irregular area of decreased density, a well defined nodular-appearing mass, a thick or thin walled cavity or a lesion with an incompletewall. These patterns may be seen either initially or at some stage in the development or r~solution of an abscess.
