Neuroimage: Disseminated nocardiosis

Computed tomography (CT) of the brain revealed multiple hypodense lesions (Fig. 1) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain showed multiple conglomerate lesions with perifocal edema (Fig. 2). Imipenem is also active against many strains and linezolid is a viable alternative to sulfonamide therapy...

Zusammenfassung:Computed tomography (CT) of the brain revealed multiple hypodense lesions (Fig. 1) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain showed multiple conglomerate lesions with perifocal edema (Fig. 2). Imipenem is also active against many strains and linezolid is a viable alternative to sulfonamide therapy especially when treating HIV-infected patients.
