 AB    Intracranial fungal infections have increased in incidence in the past
       decade caused in part by the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
       epidemic. The biology, epidemiology, and appearance on computed
       tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the more common
       fungal infections of the central nervous system (CNS) will be reviewed.
       The radiographic appearance alone is often not specific, but the
       combination of the correct clinical setting along with the CT or MRI may
       help the radiologist suggest the correct diagnosis.
