Figure 1: Flowchart illustrates order of methods used to diagnose and differentiate intraaxial masses. Each method provides an answer to a specific question, which is used as a discriminator to distinguish lesions. 1.1/100MM2/ADC = 1.1 x 10–3 mm2/sec, ADC = apparent diffusion coefficient, CE = contrast material enhanced, Cho = choline, NAA = N-acetylaspartate, r/CBV = relative cerebral blood volume, TDL = tumefactive demyelinating lesion.
