Contrasted MRI of the brain. a Coronal FLAIR. b Axial T2-weighted. c Axial T1-weighted. d Axial post-contrast T1-weighted images. Coronal FLAIR showed that the tumour occupied the left temporal fossa (black arrow). The tumour was hyperintense on T2-weighted images (b), heterogeneously hyperintense on T1-weighted images (c), and had thick-wall peripheral enhancement (black arrowhead) in the post contrast T1-weighted sequence (d). The presence of a CSF cleft (circled) and dural tail (white arrowhead) suggested that the tumour is extra-axial
