Computed axial tomography has come to be a most useful procedure in the selection, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with inflammatory and parasitic lesions of the brain, because it allows a more accurate localization and definition of the histologic nature of lesions. Conventional contrast X-ray studies are not to be abandoned, but they do present a certain risk and do not provide the same degree of accuracy as CAT. Cerebral angiography will have to be carried out when CAT shows pathologic lesions.
计算机断层扫描已成为在选择、诊断、治疗和随访患有脑部炎症和寄生虫病变的患者时非常有用的程序，因为它可以更准确地定位和确定病变的组织学性质。传统的对比X射线检查不应被放弃，但它们确实存在一定风险，并且无法提供与计算机断层扫描相同程度的准确性。当计算机断层扫描显示病理性病变时，必须进行脑血管造影。
