Twenty patients of 210 with the brain metastases with diagnosed bronchogenic carcinoma were analysed, according to existing morphological criteria of computed tomography (CT), in correlation with pathohistologically findings (PHD) of primary tumor. Multiple lesions and perifocal edema as the main CT features of metastatic disease of the brain were confirmed. Some details like increased frequence of the solitary forms and uncharacteristic perifocal edema were emphasized.
