Infratentorial brain tumors of childhood

L G Vézina et al. Neuroimaging Clin N Am. 1994 May.

Abstract

One half of brain tumors in children originate in the posterior fossa. Although a wide variety of lesions occurs, four tumor types account for more than 95% of cases. Knowledge of their modes of presentation, CT and MR features, and pattern of spread can usually lead to a correct diagnosis.
