title: Cerebral computed tomography in methanol intoxication.
abstract: In four of six patients with methanol intoxication, computed tomography (CT) showed necrotic changes in the area of the putamina. Hemorrhages were also seen in some cases. There was a clear relationship between the severity of the clinical symptoms and the CT findings, indicating the potential of CT for prognosis and possible therapy guidance.
