Abstract :

<p> The MRI has created many important advances in the detection and characterization of ain lesions. The detection rate of most types of ain lesions by MRI exceeds 90%, without the invasiveness or risk of iodinated intravenous contrast agents or the inherent problem of the radiation effect of X–rays. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a potential tool for differential diagnosis between ain abscesses and non–infectious lesions. MRS provides information about the possible extent and nature of changes on a routine MRI scan by analyzing the presence and/or ratio of tissue metabolites such as NAA, creatine , choline, and lactate etc. In our study Fifty patients with Ring Enhancing Lesions on MRI were evaluated conducted over a period of 1 years from Nov 2014 to Nov 2015 of various age groups. Out of 50 cases , 16 are tuberculomas , 14 cases of Primary ain tumours, 9 are NCC , 8 metastasis, 2 are abscess , , and 1 tumefactive demyelination.</p>
