 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 10 MRI of primary central nervous system lymphoma diagnosis 【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the MRI in the diagnosis of primary central nervous system lymphoma in the role. Methods Retrospective analysis of seven cases of pathologically confirmed primary central nervous system lymphoma MRI manifestations. Results in this group were all B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, of which 5 cases of single and multiple in 2 cases. MRI showed homogeneous long T1, long T2 signal, no obvious necrotic lesions within the cystic lesion, relatively mild edema, mass effect light, the midline shift was not obvious, the enhanced uniformity of lesions was significantly enhanced. Conclusion of primary central nervous system lymphoma non-performance of a typical MRI, the incidence is relatively deep location, tumor size and mass effect disproportionate increase in real terms when the lesions enhanced uniformity and without cystic necrosis, the final diagnosis depends on pathological immune histochemical examination. Keywords: magnetic resonance imaging of brain lymphoma 0 Introduction Primary central nervous system lymphoma as a rare disease, is common in immunosuppressed patients, but in non-immunosuppressed patients also have occurred, and the trend of gradual increase in recent years [1]. This retrospective analysis of our hospital in recent years, confirmed by pathological diagnosis of 7 cases of lymphoma in immune function in normal brain MRI features, aimed at improving the ability of MRI diagnosis of the disease. 1 Data and methods 7 patients in 6 male and 1 female, aged 44 ~ 73 years, an average of 66.7 years. Headache, dizziness, vomiting, malaise, walking instability, increased intracranial pressure was the main symptom duration of 3 weeks to May. MRI examination using Philips0.5T5  NT superconductive MRI, conventional SE sequences to obtain axial, sagittal and coronal T1WI, FSE sequences to obtain T2W
