| Imaging characteristics of meningiomas have been discussed previously in many studies; however complete imaging features involving general features, MRS-DWI of both typical and atypical meningiomas have been discussed in very few studies.This study was done to evaluate the role of imaging modalities feature in correlation with histopathological finding.Patients and Methods: 21 patients selected from Radiodiagnosis department at Benha University Hospital andKasrAlaini Hospital, Cairo University and other radiological centers who having Brain CT and MRI from the period of January 2020toJanuary 2021. The study was conducted on 21 patients (11 females and 10 males) proved histopathological to have Atypical meningioma post-operative biopsy.All patients were subjected to MRI the brain was conducted with intravenous injection contrast media in rate of (4-4.5 ml/sec), imaging obtained at arterial (45sec) and venous phases (70sec). 21 patients did MRI examination and 5 of them have CT examination previously.Results:role of imaging modalities in diagnosis of atypical meningioma was (81.0% typical and 19.0% atypical meningioma) and we found the percentage in histopathological finding diagnosis was 100% (90.5% atypical and 9.5% typical miningioma).Conclusion: Imaging features of the modalities (MRI/CT) allow the radiologist to exam the detailed relations to the mass and surrounding brain parenchymal tissue, vessels and other structures. And it has role to approach a distinguish the atypical meningioma from others brain masses.The role of histopathologicalfindings isrecommended for diagnosis atypical meningioma at staging and grading. | ||
