Figure 1 MRI images of typical WHO I (A–D), WHO II (E–H) and WHO III (I–L) of LVM. Most MRI images show mixed-intense and heterogeneous enhancement. Typical low-grade LVM is relatively more regular and clearer boundary, while high-grade LVM has more obvious peritumoral edema and tissue infiltration. Heterogeneous enhancement and perifocal edema in which MRI sequences are indicated by arrows.
