Abstract
In 1972, MAMO and HOUDART described radio-isotopic cisternography as being superior to conventional neuroradiological techniques in diagnosing cerebellopontine angle tumors down to a diameter of 1 cm. But the authors left aside the results obtained with the STENVERS’ technique and with cisternography using positive radiopaque substances, when assessing the merits of the isotope procedure.
