Abstract
A positive diagnosis of tumors located within the fourth ventricle should be based on specific signs therby excluding other space occupying lesions in the posterior fossa. These are a typical omega form of the hemispheric cerebellar branches on the lateral projection, and an also typical inverted 3 form of the PICA in the semiaxial projection. Alteration of the veins of the lateral recess of the fourth ventricle and of the precentral cerebellar vein are important venous signs. Indirect signs are found in the absence of tonsillar herniation with arterial and venous signs of AP stretching of the cerebellar tonsils.
