Abstract
Focal calvarial lesions may present as a visible, palpable, or symptomatic lump; however, with increasing use of cross-sectional imaging they are often encountered as an incidental finding. Knowledge of the possible disease entities along with a structured approach to imaging is required to suggest an appropriate diagnosis and assist in management planning. Abnormalities range from common neoplastic lesions to rarer congenital conditions, benign pathologies, and calvarial defects that can mimic lesions. The aim of this article is to demonstrate the salient imaging features that may help to limit the differential diagnosis of a focal calvarial lesion.
