Tuberculosis, or TB, is an infectious bacterial disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB can occur in pulmonary or extra pulmonary. Extra pulmonary TB occurs in locations other than the lung, such as larynx, lymph node, pleura, brain, kidneys and bones. CT Scan can detect intracranial tuberculoma, and MRI is the best method to detect the abnormality in spinal tuberculosis.
