title: [Neuroradiology of the intracranial visual pathway. Part II].
abstract: Part 2 mainly presents intrinsic lesions as the most common brain tumors (astrocytoma of all grades, ependymoma), arising in the region of the visual pathway. A second focus is on vascular pathology, not only infarction, but cavernoma and venous malformation in Sturge-Weber syndrome. The third topic deals with inflammatory processes such as multiple sclerosis or sarcoidosis.
