| | Radiological findings: |
 <- view X-Ray 1
X-Ray 1: Widening of the suture, here, particularly in the lambda suture (through increased intracranial pressure). Other findings: so-called "inca" between lambda and sagittal suture.
Because it is an older image, there is no corresponding MRI image.
 <- view X-Ray 2
X-Ray 2: Lateral view
