Hypophysis MRI (with and without contrast) 1397/03/01 ﻣﺮکﺰ ﺗﺼﻮیﺮ ﺑﺮﺩﺍﺭی پﺰﺷکی آﺴیﺎ The sella shows normal size, position and configuration.

The sphenoid sinus is clear and pneumatized. 12*14 mm and T 1 and T 2 isosignal area with mild delay enhancement at mid and left lateral part of pituitary gland abuts chiasma opticum suggestive for pituitary protruding macroadenoma. Germinoma and infundibular tumors such as lymphoma are in differential.
