Magnetic Resonance Imaging Assessment of Lipomatous Soft-tissue Tumors

A comparison between histopathology and findings on magnetic resonance imaging of subcutaneous lipomatous soft-tissue tumors

OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyse the magnetic resonance (MR) findings of subcutaneous lipomatous soft-tissue tumours (SLSTT) in order to define a diagnostic and therapeutic strategy. METHODS: The MR findings of 46 SLSTT were registered for the following data: area, location within the subcutaneous compartment, dimensions, shape and delineation, signal intensity (SI) on different pulse seq...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Soft Tissue Masses.

Twenty-nine soft tissue masses were studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which proved to be useful in the preoperative evaluation of these lesions. Other imaging modalities employed had significant limitations. Plain films were of little value because of the intrinsically low contrast of soft tissues. Angiography was not necessary unless MRI suggested a vascular lesion or proximity to ...

Magnetic resonance imaging of soft-tissue tumors: determinate and indeterminate lesions.

Imaging of soft-tissue tumors.

The objective of this review is to highlight the major imaging characteristics of the main soft-tissue sarcoma histotypes observed in the group "Sarcomi" of the Istituto Oncologico Veneto in the last 5 years. A literature review was performed using PubMed and textbooks. Radiological imaging can guide the diagnosis for the subset of lesions that have typical clinical and imaging features. Soft-t...
