Abstract
Imaging has established itself as an irreplaceable component of neuro-oncology, and provided much insight in all aspects of central nervous system (CNS) tumors. Today, similar to some other medical specialties, such as bone and joint disorders, it is an integral part of the diagnosis of CNS tumors. This brief review highlights the critical elements of neuroimaging, especially of MRI, in the study and diagnosis of brain tumors, and considers some of the common entities for the diagnosis, of which a good understanding of imaging characteristics is extremely helpful.
