title: [Diagnosis and differential diagnosis of intracranial calcifications (author's transl)].
abstract: An accurate analysis of calcifications and of their localization enables a tentative diagnosis, not as rarely as is often assumed, especially if anamnestic and clinical findings are utilized for better interpretation. However, an accurate determination of the area covered by the disease, and of the kind of process, is possible only via neuroradiologic contrast medium diagnostics and computed tomography.
