Resistive NMR of brain stem gliomas. 1985

The NMR and CT findings in 22 patients with primary brain stem tumors were compared to determine the value of each study in identifying, and delineating the extent and relationships of the tumor to brain anatomy. NMR was found to be distinctly superior to CT in showing involvement of the medulla and upper cervical cord. NMR eliminates the need for intrathecal enhanced metrizamide CT, and in the future should be the only initial diagnostic test needed for the evaluation of intrinsic brain stem tumors.

D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.
