  • Title: Central nervous system opportunistic infections.
    Author: Wright D, Schneider A, Berger JR.
    Journal: Neuroimaging Clin N Am; 1997 Aug; 7(3):513-25. PubMed ID: 9376966.
    Abstract:
    The spectrum of opportunistic infections occurring in association with human-immunodeficiency virus, type 1, is very broad. These infections develop most frequently in the setting of advanced immunosuppression. There is no part of the neuraxis that is immune to these complications and the concurrence of more than one infectious illness may always be considered. The neuroimaging features, when coupled with the clinical and laboratory findings, often suggest the correct diagnosis and enable the physician to initiate therapy.
