  • Title: [Craniography in brain tumors].
    Author: Kamalov II.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1985; 85(5):696-9. PubMed ID: 4024792.
    Abstract:
    X-ray examination of 57 patients with tumours of the brain and meninges revealed general and local roentgenological alterations of the skull bones as well as secondary changes in the sella turcica. Tumours of the brain and meninges were associated with a diminution or an enlargement of the volume of the skull bones, intensification of the vascular pattern of the cranial vault and tumour calcification. A thorough craniographic examination of patients with a suspicion of brain and meningeal tumours gives definite information about general and local alterations of the skull bones and contributes to their purposeful radiographic contrast examination, which is important when surgery is contemplated.
