    AbstractThe main goal of urgent imaging evaluation of patients with suspected CNS infection is to differentiate infectious from tumoral or vascular lesions in order to provide appropriate management.

The CT and MRI features of the more frequent bacterial, viral and parasitic CNS infections will be described.
