Lucie Colas et al. AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2015 Oct.

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this article is to describe the imaging features of the most common benign or malignant skull vault lesions, which may be focal, multifocal, or diffuse.

Conclusion: Imaging features, in association with the age, history, and clinical symptoms of the patient, make it possible to propose a course of action: simple survey, pathologic confirmation, or complete surgical resection.

Keywords: CT; MRI; calvaria lesions; metastases; myeloma; skull vault.
