Clinical and imaging data of 33 basal ganglia GCTs were retrospectively analyzed, including 17 germinomas and 16 mixed germ cell tumors (MGCTs). The cyst/mass ratio of germinomas (0.53 ± 0.32) was higher than that of MGCTs (0.28 ± 0.19, = 0.030). CT density of the solid part of germinomas (41.47 ± 5.22 Hu) was significantly higher than that of MGCTs (33.64 ± 3.75 Hu, < 0.001), while apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC, × mm /s) value of the solid part was significantly lower in geminomas (0.86 ± 0.27 × mm /s) than in MGCTs (1.42 ± 0.39 × mm /s, < 0.001). MGCTs were more common with intratumoral hemorrhage (68.75% 11.76%, = 0.01), T1 hyperintense foci (68.75% 5.88%, < 0.001) and calcification (64.29% 20.00%, = 0.025) than germinomas. There was no significant difference in internal capsule involvement between the two subtypes ( = 0.303), but Wallerian degeneration was more common in germinomas than in MGCTs (70.59% 25.00%, = 0.015). The subtypes of GCT have different imaging features. Tumoral cystic-solidity, heterogeneity, ADC value, CT density, and Wallerian degeneration are helpful to differentiate germinomas and MGCTs in basal ganglia. The subtypes of GCT have different histological characteristics, leading to various imaging findings. The imaging features of GCT subtypes in basal ganglia may aid clinical diagnosis and treatment. The subtypes of GCT have different histological characteristics, leading to various imaging findings. The imaging features of GCT subtypes in basal ganglia may aid clinical diagnosis and treatment. To evaluate the visualization of incidentally imaged normal pituitary gland on three-dimensional (3D) pseudo continuous arterial spin labeling (PCASL) perfusion imaging of the brain. Ninety-three patients with a normal pituitary gland who underwent 3D PCASL for suspected brain diseases were retrospectively included. Vis
