Objectives: To give a description of clinical characteristics of brain magnetic resonance image in patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer. Subjects and method: A prospective study on 104 patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer, from 2 - 2017 to 9 - 2018. Results: Mean age was 59, most of them under 65 years old (75.3%), male occupied 89.4%, adenocarcinoma 93.3%. EGFR (+) 52.9%. Asymptomatic patients explained 59.6%. Size of brain metastases ≤ 2 cm made up 73.1%, 1 - 2 tumors constituted 55.8%. Conclusion: Most patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer were males, under 65 years old with adenocarcinoma and asymptomatic histology. Size of brain metastases ≤ 2 cm and 1 - 2 tumors in brain were common. Brain metastases with ring enhancement was 73.1%, peritumoral edema was 60.6%. * Keywords: Non-small cell lung cancer; Brain metastases; Brain magnetic resonance image; Clinical characteristics.
