[Abstract] Objective: To observe the value of diffusion tensor MR imaging in differentiating atypical meningioma from glioma.Materials and Methods: Fortyfive patients with pathologically proven brain tumor (17 atypical meningioma, 28 different grade gliomas) under went diffusion tensor MR imaging Mean fractional anisotropy (FA) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were measured in the tumor parenchyma, peritumoral region and corresponding contralateral normal brain tissue. The FA and ADC in the tumor parenchyma, peritumoral region and corresponding contralateral normal brain tissue of atypical meningioma and glioma were analyzed by SPSS 19.0. The results were expressed as ±s and P<0.05 was regarded as statistically significant differences.Results: There were many differences with FA in parenchyma, peritumoral region and corresponding contralateral normal brain tissue between atypical meningioma (0.23±0.05, 0.20±0.04, 0.28±0.04) from glioma (0.05±0.01, 0.14±0.03, 0.26±0.04). There were also many differences with ADC (×10-9mm2/s) in parenchyma, peritumoral region and corresponding contralateral normal brain tissue between atypical meningioma (0.82±0.13, 1.22±0.32, 0.73±0.10) from glioma (1.82±0.17,1.71±0.10, 0.70±0.06).Conclusions: Measurement of tumor parenchyma and peritumoral region’s FA values and ADC values can identify atypical meningioma and glioma.
