[Multi-axial echoencephalography in the diagnostic system for brain tumors].

The authors examined 204 patients with tumors of the brain of supra- and subtentorial location. It is shown that multiaxial echoencephalography is simple and informative. The echographic criteria studied, whose changes are determined by the location and character of the tumor, are very important. On the basis of the changes of these parameters, the possibilities of earlier and diagnosis of brain tumors were established.
