title: Hypodense meningiomas.
abstract: While majority of the meningiomas can be diagnosed on contrast enhanced computerised tomography (CT) scans, few of them can have atypical appearances, which may be difficult to distinguish from those seen in glial tumours. Six atypical cases of meningioma having hypodense appearances on CT scan are described.
