Objective : Object : A 7-year retrospective clinical and MRI study was reviewed to evaluate the characteristics of pineal cyst. We evaluated results of clinical and radiologic change of pineal cyst during follow up period. Patients and Methods : From 1992 to 1999, 50 patients with pineal cyst were visited for evaluation. Follow up clinical information was obtained from patients or clinical record through phone conversation. also radiologic findi-ngs of pineal cyst in mid-sagittal MRI were reviewed in detail. Results : Pineal cysts were usually asymptomatic and detected incidentally during evaluation of other diseases. Sagittal MRI is the most useful diagnostic test. The radiologic findings of pineal cyst were isointensity on T1WI comared to CSF and slightly high signal intensity on T2WI. Cyst wall was variably enhanced on Gad-enhanced T1WI. The average size of cyst was
