Radiographic findings of glioblastoma

Radiographic findings of glioblastoma

What are the characteristic radiographic findings for a glioblastoma? 

Glioblastomas often appear as ring-enhancing lesions with a necrotic center on contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

They are usually in the cerebrum but can infrequently display the classic infiltration across the corpus callosum (“butterfly glioma”)

Even in cases of classical imaging findings, tumor resection and pathologic confirmation are necessary.
