Abstract

Objective To analyse the characteristic MRI manifestations of central neurocytoma and to discuss clinical significance.Methods 15 cases of central neurocytoma confirmed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed according to tumor location,shape,margin,signal and strengthen degree.Results All the tumors were located in the lateral ventricles and closed to the septum pellucidum.Their parenchyma showed isointensity on T1WI and T2WI,with cystic areas.They showed inhomogeneous enhancement after intensified scanning.Conclusion Central neurocytoma should be considered when a mass originates from the septum pellucidum.
