    Author: Long J.
    Journal: Zhonghua Shen Jing Jing Shen Ke Za Zhi; 1990 Dec; 23(6):374-6, 386. PubMed ID: 2098252.
    Abstract:
    This paper reported 12 cases with brain abscess demonstrated by CT scan. Using antibiotic management without surgical intervention, in 10 cases the curative effects were satisfactory. The paper indicated that CT scan was very useful in prompt and correct diagnosis of brain abscess and with sequential CT scan medical therapy was feasible. It is significant in treatment of brain abscess especially for the patients who have a poor general condition, have the brain abscess located in important functional area or have multiple abscesses so that the operation is difficult for them.
