title: A scalp lesion over an extracerebral mass: a sign of a radiation-induced meningioma.
abstract: Radiation-induced meningiomas have a characteristic biological behaviour, so that their recognition is important as regards follow-up. We stress the importance of a scalp lesion over the meningioma on magnetic resonance imaging as a sign of previous radiotherapy.
