Abstract

A ring of enhancement immediately posterior to the optic chiasm has been observed on postcontrast, thin section, axial CT. This ring represents enhancement of the infundibular recess' wall and does not have any pathologic significance. Magnetic resonance confirmed this anatomic interpretation.
