The presence of intracranial adipose tissue is often overlooked, although it may be detected in different physiological (dural sinuses or falx deposition of fat) and pathological (lipoma, dermoid cyst, subarachnoid fat dissemination) conditions. In this review, we illustrate various scenarios in which radiologists and neuroradiologists may encounter intracranial fat, providing a list of differential diagnosis.
颅内脂肪组织常常被忽视,但在不同的生理(硬脑膜窦或镰状突脂肪沉积)和病理(脂肪瘤、皮样囊肿、蛛网膜下腔脂肪播散)情况下可能会被检测到。在这篇综述中,我们展示了放射科医生和神经放射科医生可能遇到颅内脂肪的各种情况,并提供了鉴别诊断列表。
