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.

摘要

Chiari畸形可能是严重病症，其诊断常常使临床医生感到困惑。当患者出现Chiari畸形时，他们可能没有症状，也可能有一系列症状，其中许多症状可能与其他神经系统疾病相混淆。影像学检查，尤其是磁共振成像，在Chiari畸形的诊断和治疗中起着重要作用。
