title: Chiari malformations.
abstract: Chiari malformations can be serious conditions and their diagnosis often confounds clinicians. When patients present with Chiari malformations, they may have no symptoms or a range of symptoms, many of which can be confused with other neurological conditions. Imaging, and particularly magnetic resonance, plays an important role in diagnosing and treating Chiari malformations.
