[Migration disorders of the brain--an evaluation of computed tomographic and magnetic resonance tomographic studies].
Twenty-eight patients with abnormalities of migration were examined with CT and MRI. Thirteen patients had heterotopia, ten patients had agyria/pachygyria, two with unilateral schizencephaly and three with hemimegalencephaly. MRI proved markedly superior because of its wider contrast range and its ability to obtain various imaging planes. The various conditions are described in detail.
