Differential imaging characteristics and dissemination potential of pilomyxoid astrocytomas versus pilocytic astrocytomas
Conclusion
Some imaging features like enhancement pattern or presence of cysts or hemorrhage may help differentiating these low-grade gliomas. Our results confirm previous scarce data suggesting a higher rate of CSF dissemination in PMAs, even in the youngest patient population.
