Department of Neuroradiology, Hôpital Universitaire Erasme, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium.

Published: June 1993

Review of 500 consecutive MRI studies was undertaken to assess the frequency and the appearances of cystic pineal glands. Cysts were encountered in 2.4% of cases. Follow-up examination demonstrated no change in these cysts and they were considered to be a normal variant. Size, MRI appearances and signs associated with this condition are reported in order to establish criteria of normality.
