dc.description.abstract | OBJECTIVES: The differential diagnosis of mass lesions of the pontocerebellar angle is not always possible by conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this study, we investigated the role of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI in the differential diagnosis of acoustic neurinoma, meningioma, and paraganglioma. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twelve patients (8 females, 4 males; mean age 47.5 years; range 8 to 71 years) whose diagnoses were acoustic neurinoma (n=3), paraganglioma (n=5), and meningioma (n=4) were evaluated by simultaneous conventional and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI. Prior to postcontrast T1-weighted images, dynamic MRI was obtained. On these images, maximum contrast enhancement (Cmax) and time to peak enhancement (Tmax) were calculated at 15 different time points. Time-signal intensity curve patterns of the lesions were compared. RESULTS: According to the four main time-signal intensity curve patterns described in the literature, acoustic neurinomas, meningiomas, and paragangliomas exhibited type C, type A-B, and type A curve patterns, respectively. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that dynamic contrast MRI may have an additional but limited role in the differential diagnosis of extra-axial intracranial tumors such as those of the pontocerebellar angle. | en_US |
