Abstract

“There is a wide variety of lesions that may fill the intracranial space. Early identification is essential for planning the action necessary to avoid Intracranial Space Occupying Lesions and their associated greater morbidity and death.”. [1]
“Imaging of intracranial space occupying lesion has taken on new meaning with the advent of CT and MRI scanning, allowing for good anatomical detail in the axial, sagittal, and coronal planes and allowing for the characterisation of tumour tissue. The development of MR angiography has allowed for the noninvasive creation of a three-dimensional virtual vascular map of tumour blood supply, which has aided in the early diagnosis and localization of the SOL and, in conjunction with cutting-edge neurosurgical techniques, has improved the prognosis of mass lesions.”
