-
MRI axial FLAIR showing a relatively well circumscribed mass involving the temporal lobe and insular cortex, without convincing enhancement, and minimal restricted diffusion.[1]
-
MRI including post contrast sequences demonstrates a large mass involving the majority of the left frontal lobe, which exerts significant mass effect resulting in midline shift and effacement of the frontal horn of the lateral ventricle. The mass is heterogeneous, but predominantly hypointense on T1 with a surrounding mantle of tumor edema. Following contrast there is heterogeneous moderate enhancement.[2]

A sharply defined zone of abnormal slightly heterogeneous signal in the left parietal lobe extends to involve the medial cortex of the superior parietal lobule. Inferiorly it abuts and distorts the cingulate gyrus. Superiorly it is significantly posterior to the precentral gyrus and slightly posterior to the left post central gyrus. Posterior and laterally it extends to and distorts the left intraparietal sulcus. It extends to within 1 cm of the parieto-occipital fissure postero-medially, slightly posteriorly bowing it.
