    Journal: Rofo; 1988 Apr; 148(4):408-14. PubMed ID: 2834788.
    Abstract:
    118 examinations were carried out for non-tumorous diseases of the brain and cervical cord. The sensitivity of MRT was analysed and compared with 77 cases where CT had been performed or with sonography in children. MRT showed an abnormality in 80%, whereas CT or sonography lead to a diagnosis in only 43%. Because of the significantly higher sensitivity of MRT, this should be the primary means of examination for this type of case.
