Well defined fat lesion is again demonstrated on the tentorium cerebelli expressing high T1 and FLAIR signal.

It is unclear if this represents an intracranial lipoma (intradural) or fat within the tentorium, analogous to fatty falx cerebri. In either case, it is an incidental finding of no clinical significance.
