Calcification of Falx Cerebri between Male and Female Patients: A Comparative Study

Objectives: The aim of this paper is to study the calcification that occurs in the inter−hemispheric fissure to compare between male and female patients. Materials and Methods: The level of density and size of these calcifications were collected and analyzed in 30 patients randomly. Results: The result of this study showed that there is a relation between falx cerebri and gender since its more common in female patients. The density of the calcifications is higher in males and the calcifications are longer on the AP axis, while the falx cerebri calcifications are wider in the coronal axis in females. Conclusion: There is a relation between Calcification of falx cerebri and gender.
