Dystrophic calcification in a 73-year-old female with a prior history of intracranial bleed who presented with loss of consciousness. The NCECT scan (a), close-up view (b) and 3D reconstruction (c) showed “brain stones” (black arrows) in the middle of the pathological brain regions. There is also an intraventricular drain present (white arrows). The subsequent appearance of calcifications in known post-traumatic or post-ischaemic areas of the brain is largely attributed to dystrophic calcification
