Figure 11: GBM in the left temporal lobe in a 64-year-old woman. Axial gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted MR image shows a cystic mass with a mural nodule, an extremely unusual appearance for a GBM. Differential diagnosis could include pilocytic astrocytoma, ganglioglioma, and pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma, particularly if the patient were younger.
