MR of isolated leptomeningeal glioma

AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 1994 Oct;15(9):1782-4.

Abstract

We report the MR study of a case of high-grade glioma that mimics leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. Superficial gliomas should thus be included in the differential diagnosis of isolated meningeal enhancement.
