Unusual tumours of the skull and skull base: a pictorial essay.
Six unusual tumours of the skull and skull base are illustrated in this pictorial essay; for three of the tumours, both magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography were performed preoperatively. These two imaging modalities can provide complementary information in the preoperative evaluation of unusual tumours of the skull and skull base.
