摘要: Abstract Whilst pituitary adenomas are the commonest cause of a sellar mass, there number other neoplastic, infectious, inflammatory, developmental and vascular aetiologies that should be considered by radiologist. We discuss illustrate these lesions indicate various magnetic resonance imaging features helpful in formulating an appropriate differential diagnosis. Connor, S. E. J. Penney, C. (2003).
