A cerebral abscess is a collection of infected material within the brain tissue. It can develop from various sources of infection and may cause subtle symptoms initially. An MRI may show a ring-shaped change in the brain consistent with an abscess. Finding a cerebral abscess early may allow for prompt antibiotic or surgical treatment before it enlarges and causes serious neurological damage.
