Fig. 2.

Magnetic resonance imaging before surgery. a T1-weighted image of the lesion. The tumor shows homogenous high intensity compared to the brain. A thin capsule is observed around the tumor. b T2-weighted image of the lesion. The tumor shows homogenous high intensity compared to the brain. This image also indicates a thin capsule. c Fat-suppressed T2-weighted image of the lesion. The internal signal from the tumor is almost completely suppressed compared to the normal T2-weighted image. d Another slice of the T1-weighted image of the tumor. The internal signal of the tumor is not homogenous when compared with the slice presented in a. This finding is thought to be atypical of a lipoma
