Abstract:
We investigated brain tissue from 7 deceased patients with Fahr's disease using X-ray-analysis for the determination of compositional differences between calcareous particles in different areas of brain or between the left and right sides in a brain and differences in composition of concrements in different brains. We found, in all areas of one brain no difference in elementary composition. Differences were found between different brains, two brains showed a high silicon content.
