Early neuroimaging is crucial for diagnosing brain and spine hydatid disease (neurohydatidosis) in endemic regions. This study reviews characteristic imaging findings for prompt evaluation.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Neurohydatidosis, a parasitic infestation of the central nervous system by *Echinococcus granulosus*, poses significant diagnostic challenges.
  • Early detection is vital for effective management and improved patient outcomes, particularly in regions where the disease is endemic.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To elucidate the spectrum of imaging findings associated with neurohydatidosis.
  • To emphasize the importance of non-invasive imaging modalities for early diagnosis.

Main Methods:

  • Review of imaging findings in confirmed cases of neurohydatidosis.
  • Correlation of imaging features with clinical presentation and literature.

Main Results:

  • Neurohydatidosis presents with diverse imaging characteristics on various modalities, including CT and MRI.
  • Characteristic findings aid in differentiating neurohydatidosis from other intracranial and spinal pathologies.

    • Conclusions:

    • Imaging plays a pivotal role in the early and non-invasive diagnosis of neurohydatidosis.
    • Familiarity with imaging findings is essential for radiologists and clinicians in endemic areas.
