When scanning the head one of the most common types of pathology I come across are gliomas. Of the tumors that are gliomas almost half are glioblastomas. They usually develope in the cerebral hemispheres, most often in the frontal lobes. When contrast is given on these patients the tumor it usually has a ring like enhancement. My experience with these patients is that the tumor almost always comes back even after removal. This seems to be a very aggressive tumor.
