title: [Tumors of the pineal region: MRI aspects. Apropos of 20 cases].
abstract: MR imaging (0,5 T) was performed in twenty patients with a tumor of the pineal region (17 pathological correlations). To establish the place of this technique, MR imaging data are studied. There is a great variety of tumor types, but the signal of the tumor is usually non specific. The main indication of MR imaging appears to be the evaluation of the extension of the tumor before surgery.
