H J Kim1, W B Jun, S H Lee, M H Rho.   

Abstract

Anthrax meningoencephalitis is a rare complication of infection with Bacillus anthracis and generally produces a hemorrhagic meningoencephalitis. We present the CT and MR imaging findings in two patients demonstrating subarachnoid, intracerebral, and intraventricular hemorrhage with leptomeningeal enhancement.
