Among 5000 computer-tomographic examinations of the brain, there were only 82 tumours located in the 4th ventricle and spinal space. The method is of value for the indication of the localisation and extension of the tumours. The relation of tumours to the rhomboid fossa cannot always be clearly recognised. In spite of good indications in case of some tumours, this method cannot replace the histological method. It contributed only little to the early diagnosis in the series of examinations; the majority of the tumours had a volume of 30 ml. This is due to the fact that characteristic clinical symptoms occur late.
在5000次脑部计算机断层扫描检查中，仅有82个肿瘤位于第四脑室和脊髓间隙。该方法对于肿瘤定位和范围的显示具有重要价值。肿瘤与菱形窝的关系并非总能清晰辨认。尽管对某些肿瘤有较好的显示，但该方法无法取代组织学方法。在这一系列检查中，它对早期诊断的贡献不大；大多数肿瘤体积为30毫升。这是因为典型临床症状出现较晚。
