The findings of computed tomography in 27 children aged from 4 months to 15 years with abscesses of the brain are analysed. Computed tomography proved to be an informative diagnostic method in determining the exact topography, size, and shape of the abscess. It allows judgement of the efficacy of nonoperative and surgical management of abscesses.
