"Dural tail" adjacent to acoustic neuroma on MRI: a case report
Neuroradiology.
1993.
Abstract
A "dural tail" on Gd-DTPA-enhanced MRI has been often observed adjacent to meningiomas and considered to be useful in distinguishing meningioma of the cerebellopontine angle from acoustic neuroma. However, demonstration of a dural tail adjacent to an acoustic neuroma indicates that this sign is not specific.
