A member asked:
If a lesion on my brain did not enhance with contrast on the mri, is it safe to assume it is not a glioma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depending on grade, early on, glioma may not be contrast positive. The more aggressive tumors do light up. Discuss your concerns with radiologist
