Neuroimaging of meningeal disease.
In the past two decades, the advent of CT and MRI has made a considerable impact on the evaluation of meningeal diseases, conditions once regulated to cytological, histopathological, or postmortem analyses alone. This article reviews the imaging findings in various meningeal processes with particular attention to the anatomic definition of the meningeal layers and their relationship to the development of meningeal pathology and consequent imaging characteristics.
