A stone-like deposit or mineral accumulation found within brain tissue, often formed from calcium deposits.
From Greek enkephalos (brain) + lithos (stone), describing mineral formations that appear stone-like when they accumulate in the brain.
Encephaloliths are rare but fascinating—they're tiny 'rocks' that can form in the brain over time, and they show up dramatically white on CT scans.
