Spectrum of neuroimaging findings in cryptococcal meningitis in immunocompetent patients in China - A series of 18 cases

Cryptococcal meningitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of immunocompetent patients with brain MRI findings of prominent parenchymal involvement such as bilateral patchy lesions in basal ganglia or miliary distribution of parenchymal nodules.
