A member asked:
What does "anterior interhemispheric falx calcification" mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The falx: is a normal dural reflection at the brain midline. Falx calcification is a common incidental finding, usually of no concern. If it is a calcified mass along the falx, rather than calcification of the falx, it is most likely a benign meningioma.
