Basal ganglia calcification. Characteristics of CT scans and clinical findings.

A E Adams.   

Abstract

Intracranial calcifications are attributed to many diseases. The globus pallidus is almost always the site of bilateral idiopathic calcium deposits. Computed tomography is superior to conventional skull radiographs in detecting intracranial calcifications. Patients had symptoms that were often explained by other findings. Basal ganglia calcification alone is not a nosological entity and does not justify invasive diagnostic procedures.
