  • Title: False positive-false negative CT scan in late epileptic seizure: a meningioma-glioblastoma association.
    Author: Bouchez B, Assaker R, Hautefeuille P, Combelles G, Arnott G.
    Journal: J Neurol; 1986 Aug; 233(4):218-20. PubMed ID: 3018179.
    Abstract:
    A false-negative finding on initial CT is reported in a case of supratentorial glioma. This observation was peculiar because the first CT revealed a meningioma which might initially have been related to the clinical symptoms. The term false positive-false negative CT is proposed. The reasons for such CT failures are discussed. The accuracy of clues as to the localization of the glioma provided by EEG is emphasized.
