Abstract

Slone HW, Blake JJ, Shah R, Guttikonda S, Bourekas EC rimary CNS lymphoma is the confinement of extranodal lymphoma to the CNS. Classically, lymphomas are divided into Hodgkin’s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, with a primary extranodal presentation in 5% and 30% of cases, respectively. With an increasing incidence in both the immunocompetent and immunocompromised populations, primary CNS lymphoma represents 1% of all lymphomas and as many as 16% of all primary brain tumors [1]. This amplified prevalence makes primary CNS lymphoma an important consideration in the differential diagnosis of brain lesions. This pictorial essay will review the varied CT and MRI appearances of intracranial lymphomas.
