Abstract

137 samples of intracranial tumours have been studied in proton NMR spectroscopy. T1 and T2 relaxation times are above those of normal grey and white matter. Differential diagnosis between benign and malignant brain tumours does not seem feasible upon proton T1 and T2 alone. Histological correlations allowed us to specify secondary changes accounting for T1 and T2 variations (oedema, microcyst, stroma reaction, necrosis).
