Abstract
16 patients with transient global amnesia (TGA) have been investigated by computer tomography. 3 had a completed stroke associated with the TGA. The findings of computer tomography were normal in 7 patients. Atrophy alone was seen in 2 patients. A single hypodense lesion was found in 6 patients; a bilateral lesion in 1 patient. All 3 patients with amnesic stroke showed a hypodense lesion in the CT.Keywords
