Spanish term or phrase: más craneal
Con respecto al estudio previo, se evidencia un crecimiento del polo sólido más craneal situado en los GGBBs derechos, que presenta restricción a la difusión con mayor realce asociado de forma difusa, a expensas del eje ánteroposterior y transverso con mayor extensión hacia lateral y también hacia posterior (ver imágenes comparativas).
Imagen compatible con anomalía venosa del desarrollo frontobasal I.

Conclusion: Cambios postquirúrgicos en relación con antecedentes de la paciente, objetivándose un aumento del componente sólido más craneal que restringe la difusión y un incremento del realce de forma global de la lesión centrada en región talamomesencefálica derecha en su vertiente anterosuperior en los GGBBs, se adjuntan imágenes comparativas.

The two uses of "más craneal " don't quite make sense. I wonder if the author means "y craneal" instead. Thoughts?

English translation:more cranial (higher on the craniocaudal plane)
Explanation:
I'm not sure this is how an imaging expert would phrase it, but it might at least get you by.

"Caudal: Pertaining to, situated in, or toward the tail or the hind part. Or below another structure.
Cranial: Toward the head, as opposed to caudad."

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  abe(L)solano: definitively "plane" must be used here, for sake of meaning
2 mins
  -> Noted, thanks, Abe(l)!

agree  Muriel Vasconcellos: Yes, of course. I didn't think of that.
12 mins
  -> Thanks, Muriel, it didn't click with me either at first. It's confusing at first because it's a scan of the head (cranium).

agree  neilmac: That's more like it...
2 hrs
  -> Thanks, Neil.

agree  Chema Nieto Castañón: Ese es el sentido sin duda. Maybe "most cranial end", "upper end". I am having trouble here with "polo sólido" (meaning "solid pole/end" of the tumor)//Yes, maybe. Although there is no ambiguity in "most cranial end"; just unsure of most natural rendering
8 hrs
  -> Thanks, Chema, of course, I too am finding it a little hard to be precise using anything other than "cranial" here, perhaps "most upper end"?
