The system extracts the scores and the average based on the localization of the tables gathering this information and it consists of several stages. After preprocessing, the system locates the tables using ruling-lines information as well as other text information. Therefore, the adopted localization approach can work even in the absence of certain ruling-lines or the erasure and discontinuity of lines. After that, the localized tables are segmented into columns and the columns into information cells. Finally, cells labeling is done based on the prior knowledge of the tables structure allowing to identify the scores and the average. Experiments have been conducted on a local dataset in order to evaluate the performances of our system and compare it with three public systems at three levels, and the obtained results show the effectiveness of our system.

The aim of the present paper is to collect the reported clinical and radiological signs in the literature and compare it with a personal observation to evaluate the possibility of a presumptive diagnosis. A 4-year-old boy presented at the pediatric emergency department with 7 days history of severe headache, vomiting blurred vision and had one partial seizure. His neurologic examination was notable for decreased visual acuity with bilateral papilledema and intact extra-ocular muscles. His neck was rigid. Neuroimaging revealed a multifocal dural-based mass on the fronto-parietal convexity with dense heterogeneous contrast enhancement and hydrocephalus. He has undergone a Ventriculoperitoneal shunt and surgical excision of the mass the next day. Outcome was favorable with antituberculosis therapy and corticosteroids. The clinical presentation and outcome were similar to the reported cases in the literature.
