Abstract:
In 1996, the center for image diagnosis implemented CT scanner on 20 patients to identify cerebral cysticercosis. The results showed that the male/female patient rate was 4/1. The cysticercosis located mainly in brain, under skin and muscle. If cysticercosis found in brain, it should find cysticercosis whether is in the skin and muscle or not. And if the cysticercosis found in the skin and muscle and there is an intracranial hyperpressure, it should find the cysticercosis in the brain
