Abstract:
An analysis of 270 patients with the brain tumor with the results of pathological anatomy diagnosed by CT scanner in Viet Duc hospital during 1996 - 1997 has shown that it was not difficult to diagnose the meningeal tumor (21.9%), pituitary tumor (10.4%), craniopharyngeal tumor (4.8%) and metastatic tumor by CT scanner. But it was difficult to diagnose the spider tumor (14.8%) by CT scanner because of atypical signs.
