title: 18FDG-PET and electroencephalographic findings in a patient suffering from musical hallucinations.
abstract: The majority of reports on the phenomenon of musical hallucinations suggests that this abnormality is a complication of a progressive peripheral hearing deficit. The present case report and a review of the international literature would, however, indicate that this syndrome may be the result of a dysfunction of the temporal cortex.
