Diagnosis of intrasellar cisternal herniation (empty sella) by computer assisted tomography
J Comput Assist Tomogr.
1977 Jan.
Abstract
Twenty-six cases of empty sella were studied using computer assisted tomography (CAT). Emphasis was placed on the technical factors controlling the pictures. The diagnosis seems to be feasible in a large number of cases provided movement artifacts are reduced and the angulation, thickness, and level of the cut are carefully chosen.
