Abstract

Few studies exist in the literature on pediatric brain tumors examined with advances MRI techniques. The aim of this review is to try to find out some specific tissular characteristics of the main cerebral tumors encountered in children, especially through diffusion imaging, perfusion imaging and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). However, hemispheric cerebral tumors are not as common as in the adult population.
