Heavily Calcified Meningioma

Posted by pendletons1 @pendletons1, May 30, 2023

My mri showed a heavily calcified lesion on the extra axial left frontal skull. Could this be from a old childhood injury if being hit on the left frontal skull with a red paver brick? My dr has ordered a ct scan, now I am nervous. Not sure why he has now ordered a ct scan. What would it show that a mri did not show.
Any answers will be helpful.

I'm praying that this heavily calcified lesion of my left frontal skull is also from my injury. My dr of course told me that there not caused from injury. The mri without contrast shows heavily calcified lesion. And I the after notes says no prior comparison could possibly be a calcified meningioma. I was trying to see if heavily calcified lesion is different from a heavily calcified meningioma. Thankyou so much for sharing with me about yours. My accident also was in the 70s. Er sent me home with stitches. Is yours also on the outer brain ?
