In this paper, we review the imaging findings associated with the major
viral infections of the CNS in infants and children. We approach these
infections by grouping them into several categories: congenital infections
in neonates, aseptic meningitis and encephalitis, acute disseminated
encephalomyelitis and other postviral syndromes in older children, and HIV
infection.
