  • Title: Encephalomalacia in the distribution of the posterior cerebral and superior cerebellar arteries: the CT and radionuclide examination.
    Author: Kryst T, Frankiewicz E, Jura E.
    Journal: Eur J Nucl Med; 1981 Apr; 6(4):179-81. PubMed ID: 6260502.
    Abstract:
    The case described concerns the clinical diagnosis of a vascular focus in the distribution of the posterior cerebral and superior cerebellar arteries. Up to now both carotid and vertebral angiography were required. Nontraumatic CT and radionuclide studies have allowed demonstration of the etiology of the disease in the occipital and cerebellar region without further neuroradiology examinations with contrast. Clinical diagnosis by using neuroradiological methods in the detection of infarct in the region of the posterior cerebral and cerebellar artery is seldom observed. The case of a vascular focus in the distribution of the posterior cerebral and superior cerebellar arteries was diagnosed using the above methods.
