Auxiliary value of CT scanning in differentiating acute glioma stroke from simple cerebral hemorrhage

Objective To summarize the auxiliary value of CT scanning in differentiating acute glioma stroke from simple cerebral hemorrhage. Methods The CT data of 12 patients with acute glioma stroke diagnosed by operation and pathological examination were analyzed retrospectively.Results CT scan presented high density hematoma with clear borderline in 12 cases, solid tumor mass in 9 cases, no clear tumor foci in 3 cases, and perifocal edema in 10 cases. Conclusion The combination with the clinical history, CT manifestations and enhanced CT scan can facilitate the diagnosis of acute glioma stroke from simple cerebral hemorrhage.
