title: [Radiological diagnosis and differential diagnosis of calcifications of the basal ganglia (author's transl)].
abstract: The radiological appearance and main features of calcifications of the basal ganglia in metabolic, toxic and hypoxemic disorders, degenerative and systemic diseases, tumors as well as infectious and parasitic lesions are described and demonstrated by typical radiographs. The roentgenological differential diagnosis and etiological classification are debated on occurence, incidence, localization, and topography with regard to individual structures of the basal ganglia, distribution pattern and according to the dimension, shape, margin and density pattern of these calcifications.
