Role of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in Ring Enhancing Lesions

Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

We report a 5 year old boy with ring enhancing lesions in brain CT, initially diagnosed as neurocysticercosis but did not respond to cysticidal therapy. A Magnetic resonance spectropscopy (MRS) revealed lipid peaks suggestive of tuberculoma which was successfully treated with antituberculosis therapy. This report highlights the role of MRS in the diagnosis of ring enhancing lesios.
