Tuberculosis of the central nervous system possess a serious clinical and radiological problem, since early treatment of this condition is crucial for the patient's life, and tuberculous process in the CNS may mimic many other pathologies. In this paper three cases of tuberculous process difficult to diagnose are presented. In all the cases early treatment could be started due to MRI findings suggesting tuberculous etiology. The authors emphasize the importance of presumptive radiological diagnosis in reducing the morbidity and mortality rates due to CNS tuberculosis.
中枢神经系统结核是一个严重的临床和放射学问题，因为对这种疾病的早期治疗对患者的生命至关重要，并且中枢神经系统的结核病变可能会模仿许多其他病理情况。本文介绍了三例难以诊断的结核病例。在所有病例中，由于MRI检查结果提示结核病因，得以开始早期治疗。作者强调了推定放射学诊断在降低中枢神经系统结核发病率和死亡率方面的重要性。
