Every year, 400 children suffer from a brain tumor. These are the most frequent solid tumors in the pediatric patient. They represent a very heterogenic group of tumors with different clinical symptoms, pathology, therapy and prognosis. Imaging modalities such as CT and MRI are important for the diagnosis and follow-up after therapy. Brain tumors in children are responsible for 15-20% of all brain tumors. Tumors of the central nervous system are the second most common tumors after leukemia. Infra- and supratentorial tumors occur in equal number, however, there are differences in the age of occurrence: supratentorial tumors occur more often within the first 2-3 years of life, whereas infratentorial tumors reach there peak between 4 and 10 years. After the tenth year, infra- and supratentorial tumors occur with equal frequency.
