Abstract

Lesions of the skull vault are often incidentally encountered during in plain radiography, CT, and MR imaging of the brain and benign lesions are more common than primary malignancies. The usefulness of plain skull films is limited, but when combined with CT or MRI, there is a high probability of accurate diagnosis. The aim of this essay is to describe a wide range of cranial lesions and to illustrate their distinguishing features.
