pubmed:abstractText |
Since conventional bacteriological methods rarely detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and are of limited use in the diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis (TBM), clinical features suggestive of TBM supported by indirect evidence such as CSF examination and computerized tomography (CT) of the head have been used for the early diagnosis of TBM.
