The imaging technique of choice is magnetic Lymphocytic infundibuloneurohypophysitis (LINH) typically presents as acute onset diabetes insipidus (DI) with intracranial mass effect symptoms. Because it is infrequently encountered, it is not often considered as a differential diagnosis of sellar masses.
