Imaging Findings

A single T1-weighted, post-contrast MR image shows an extra-axial lesion arising from the middle cranial fossa. The lesion enhances heterogeneously. Low-signal areas may be flow voids or calcifications. A T1-weighted, pre-contrast image confirms flow voids. A coronal T1-weighted image shows the lesion's involvement with the skull base. Mass effect on the left temporal lobe is apparent.
