Vertebral hydatid disease: radiological assessment
Abstract
The computed tomographic (CT) appearance and the pain radiographic and myelographic findings of vertebral hydatid disease (caused by Echinococcus granulosus) in two patients are presented. CT proved to be more useful in the initial assessment and measurement of progress of this disease than conventional radiography and myelography.
