Abstract:
:Central nervous system complications in AIDS patients are common and often the cause of severe morbidity and mortality. Most symptomatic central nervous system complications in AIDS patients involve the brain, principally in the form of HIV encephalitis, various other forms of infection, or development of neoplasms. The imaging findings are important to recognize because in many instances the underlying brain lesions are responsive to medical therapy.
