    Abstract:
    Twenty-one patients with clinical and laboratory diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis were studied at the paediatric department and neuroradiology unit of Bangur Institute of Neurology, both attached to IPGME & R, Kolkata, during the period from 1st February, 1996 to 31 st July, 1996. The age group of the patients were between 1 and 8 years. It clearly appears that CT is an extremely powerful investigative modality for the diagnosis, management and follow-up assessment of development of any complications like hydrocephalus, cerebral infarction, etc. CT examination also can predict the prognosis of the patients.
