Abstract

In Germany about 400 children are diagnosed of having a brain tumour each year. About half of them are located in the supratentorial region. Despite the fact, that brain tumours are the most common solid tumour in childhood, they are very heterogeneous, regarding clinical symptoms, pathology, treatment and prognosis. Imaging studies play an important role for diagnosis and follow-up.
