It carries a high risk of morbidity and mortality and usually has a nonspecific clinical presentation. Early diagnosis is essential in order to start effective treatment and improve clinical outcome.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Materials and Methods\u2002In a retrospective search of the PACS databases from two medical centers, we identified 9 patients with histologically proven cerebral aspergilloma. We systematically analyzed CT and MRI imaging findings to identify typical imaging appearances of cerebral aspergilloma.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Results\u2002CT did not show a typical appearance of the aspergillomas. In 100\u200a% (9\/9) there was a rim-attenuated diffusion restriction on MRI imaging. Multiple hypointense layers in the aspergillus wall, especially on the internal side, were detected in 100\u200a% on T2-weighted imaging (9\/9). Aspergillomas were T1-hypointense in 66\u200a% of cases (6\/9) and partly T1-hyperintense in 33\u200a% (3\/9). In 78\u200a% (7\/9) of cases, a rim-attenuated diffusion restriction was detected after contrast agent application.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Conclusion\u2002Nine cases were identified. Whereas CT features were less typical, we observed the following imaging features on MRI: A strong, rim-attenuated diffusion restriction (9\/9); onion layer-like hypointense zones, in particular in the innermost part of the abscess wall on T2-weighted images (9\/9). Enhancement of the lesion border was present in the majority of the cases (7\/9).<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Key points\u2002<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Citation Format\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0043-120766","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,21]],"date-time":"2017-11-21T00:13:12Z","timestamp":1511223192000},"page":"967-970","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["CT and MRI Findings in Cerebral Aspergilloma"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"190","author":[{"given":"Friederike","family":"G\u00e4rtner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology and Neuroradiology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Schleswig-Holstein, Campus Kiel, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julia","family":"Forstenpointner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Neurological Pain Research and Therapy, Department of Neurology, UKSH Kiel, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Birgit","family":"Ertl-Wagner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Clinical Radiology, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen, Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Babak","family":"Hooshmand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Clinical Radiology, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen, Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Riedel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology and Neuroradiology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Schleswig-Holstein, Campus Kiel, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Olav","family":"Jansen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology and Neuroradiology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Schleswig-Holstein, Campus Kiel, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,20]]},"container-title":["R\u00f6Fo - Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der R\u00f6ntgenstrahlen und der bildgebenden Verfahren"],"original-title":[],"language":"de","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0043-120766.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,25]],"date-time":"2018-09-25T22:56:45Z","timestamp":1537916205000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0043-120766"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,20]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"10","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,10]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2018,10]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0043-120766","relation":{},"ISSN":["1438-9029","1438-9010"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1438-9029","type":"print"},{"value":"1438-9010","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,20]]}}}
