In this monography we report some confrontations of CT and ana tomical data recorded during the last years in Leuven, Bruxelles and Strasbourg, three neighbouring universities. This material represents only a small part of our cases, but we have selected those which seemed the most suited for didactic purposes. This study is made in the traditional european way and confronts the data of an investigation with the examination of the corresponding anatomic specimen. Obviously this is only possible in very few cases. But then, these cases provide a striking demonstration of the morphol ogy of lesions seen at CT. Our aim was to provide material for teaching. This book is the first part of a trilogy; the two others deal with the pathology of the trunk. A. WACKENHEIM, L. JEANMART, A.L.
