✦ Synopsis

Cysticercosis of the brain may be parenchymal, intraventricular, or cisternal.

Spinal cysticercosis is relatively rare. We have had the opportunity to examine several patients with both CT and MR. CT findings in intraventricular cysticercosis have frequently required confirmation by metrizamide ventricululography whereas MPi detects the cyst within the ventricle.

In addition, we have noted that the scolex is frequently visualized within a cyst on MR. We feel that MH is superior to CT in detecting edema in active cysticercosis and that MH may help monitor the effect of praziquantel therapy.
