| Popis: | Computed tomography (CT) and radionuclide imaging of the central nervous system (CNS) are important modalities in both the diagnosis and management of CNS complications from Hemophilus influenzae meningitis. Both examinations are sensitive indicators of CNS abnormalities associated with bacterial meningeal infections and are important determinants of the therapy and ultimate prognosis of such complications. Representative findings from CT and radionuclide imaging of children with complications from H. influenzae infection of the meninges are presented. |
