T1-weighted coronal MRI with contrast. A large tumour is highlighted in the right posterior fossa and bilateral dilatation of the lateral ventricles is evident (likely secondary to compression of the 4th ventricle or Sylvian aqueduct). [Courtesy of Dr. J. Spears]

Post-contrast CT with multiple views displaying a large olfactory meningioma expanding around the internal carotids and as far as the clivus. Note the mass effect displacing the corpus callosum superiorly and posteriorly and erosion of the anterior fossa floor. [Courtesy of Dr. J. Spears]
Well-demarcated, homogeneous, extra-axial lesion.
a) CT
b) T1 weighted MRI (note that the tumour is isointense to the gray matter)
c) T1 weighted MRI post contrast.
