title: "Stereology" of intracranial lesions.
abstract: Endoscopy of the intracranial space requires a new understanding of the anatomy and pathology of pertinent structures. This meets with the new development of imaging methods which equally require three dimensional interpretation of intracranial pathology. The stereological arrangement of intracranial lesions is examplified on three neuropathological conditions: brain tumours, territorial infarction and mass displacement.
