[Modern methods of neuro-visualization of brain pathology in central form of Recklinghausen's disease].

The paper reviews the data available in the literature on the diagnosis of brain lesions in the central form of Recklinghausen's disease (neurofibromatosis) by magnetic resonance imaging. The results of a clinical observation of 10 children suffering trom neurofibromatosis and the data of electroencephalography, computed tomography and MRI are given and analyzed. Conclusions are made on the magnitude of and the most common site of MRI changes. It is suggested that MRI shows a higher sensitivity in detecting brain lesions in Recklinghausen's disease than other diagnostic techniques.
