Overview
Differentiating Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma from other Diseases
Primary central nervous system lymphoma must be differentiated from:
- Secondary CNS lymphoma: indistinguishable on imaging, however it tends to involve more leptomeninges (~2/3 of cases)
- Cerebral toxoplasmosis
- Glioblastoma multiforme (butterfly glioma)
- Tumefactive demyelinating lesion
- Cerebral abscess
- Neurosarcoidosis
