MR Imaging in a case of severe anorexia nervosa: the 'flip-flop' effect.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Pontine tumors carry the worst prognosis of all brain tumors. In most cases, the diagnosis is based solely on MR imaging, without biopsy. OBJECTIVE:To describe the MR findings of pontine tumors at diagnosis and during follow-up and correlate those with prognosis and to assess the value of MR imaging in pati...
