[Radiological evaluation of pineal pathology and its regions].
Contemporary neuroimaging procedures facilitate the differential diagnosis of pineal region pathology. They are of particular importance in malignant pineal tumours which may have non characteristic clinical presentation. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging with intravenous infusion of paramagnetic contrast allow to determine tumour size and localization as well as its morphologic features and growth dynamics. The diagnosis obtained is a valid basis for treatment strategies.
