Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is associated with various neurological complications.
  • Neuroimaging plays a crucial role in diagnosing and characterizing these complications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and describe the neuroimaging findings in patients diagnosed with AIDS.
  • To correlate imaging findings with specific opportunistic infections and neoplasms.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of neuroimaging procedures (CT and MRI) for 84 AIDS patients.
  • Evaluation for atrophy, enhancing lesions, and focal non-enhancing lesions.

Main Results:

  • Imaging findings associated with toxoplasmosis, cytomegalovirus, papovavirus, HIV, tuberculosis, and histoplasmosis are described.
  • Characteristics of intracranial lymphoma in AIDS patients are discussed.

Conclusions:

  • Neuroimaging is essential for identifying diverse neurological complications in AIDS patients.
  • Distinct imaging patterns aid in differentiating infectious etiologies and intracranial lymphoma.
