[The contribution of radiographic and radioisotope findings to the study of multiple sclerosis with special reference to the problems of false-positive scintigraphy reports].
The diagnostic value of radiographic and radioisotopic examinations in multiple sclerosis is noted. Multiple sclerosis is clinically diagnosed. If invasive and possibly dangerous examinations are to be avoided, only computerised axial tomography can often clarify differential diagnosis from other forms causing subtentorial hypercaptation and especially from tentorial meningitis.
