Pseudotumoral Presentation of Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy-Related Inflammation
Neurol 86:912-919, Ronsin, S.,et al, 2016
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The identification of one or several nonenhancing space-occupying lesions, especially in elderly patients presenting with cognitive impairment, should raise suspicion for the pseudotumoral presentation of CAA-I and lead to T2*-GRE sequences. Perfusion MRI and MRS appear to be useful techniques for the differential diagnosis of this entity.
