Core Tip Cavernous hemangioma in the cavernous sinus are rare lesions with significant female preponderance. This article highlights the diagnostic magnetic resonance imaging features of cavernous sinus hemangiomas (CSH). T1-weighted hypointensity with homogeneous hyperintensity on T2-weighted sequence, absence of hemosiderin within the lesion on GRE sequence and intense post contrast enhancement favour the diagnosis. On diffusion-weighted imaging CSH shows facilitated diffusion and is nearly 100% specific for CSH. Markedly hypointense hemangioma on T1 weighted images suggests schirrous nature of the lesion and is amenable to complete sur¬gical excision.
