Findings
was changed:
MassNon-contrast CT demonstrates bilateral hypodensity of the temporal poles with cysts and small areas of intracystic haemorrhage. On the left a large cyst exerts significant mass effect (left-to-right midline shift) from cystic . In the setting of prior nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with radiotherapy, the likely diagnosis is radionecrosis. A radiation-induced tumour could co-exist.
