title: [The image of intracerebral calcification in CT and MR studies. A case report of Fahr syndrome].
abstract: A case of symmetric "calcifications" in the white matter of cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia and cerebellum is reported in a patient without parathyroid function changes and calcium-phosphorus metabolism disturbances (Fahr syndrome). Attention is called to differences in the extensiveness of these deposits in CT and MRI examinations. The cause of false magnification of the outline of calcifications in CT images is discussed.
