T J Kutcher et al. J Comput Assist Tomogr. 1991 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

There have been several reports describing the presence of a dural tail on enhanced MR as being specific for or suggestive of meningioma. It has also been stated that it is a specific diagnostic sign in distinguishing meningioma from acoustic neuroma. We report a case of a dural tail in an acoustic neuroma.
