A study of dural calcification is presented. The detection by roentgenography of 164 cases of dural calcification among 1, 162 neurological and neurosurgical patients represented an incidence of 14%. Such calcification occurred with the greatest frequency in the falx cerebri, tentorium cerebelli and petroclinoid ligament. The main contributing factors and clinical significance of dural calcification were analyzed.
