title: [Neuroradiological follow-up studies of conservatively treated brain abscesses].
abstract: Five cases of brain abscess were treated conservatively with antibiotics only. Possibilities and limitations of nonsurgical cure of focal intracranial infections are discussed. Different formation of brain abscess during conservative management are shown with the aid of serial computer tomography. The value of non-invasive CT follow-up studies is compared with other conventional neuroradiological investigations.
