چکیده
This report describes a sclerosing hemangioma of the lung evaluated by MRI. The mass demonstrated hyperintense signal on T1-weighted, proton density, and T2-weighted spin-echo images. Contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imagesshowed marked, homogeneous enhancement of the mass. The MR appearance is not specific for sclerosing hemangioma of the lung, as other benign tumors can appear similarly. However, the appearance of homogeneous enhancement within the masson Gd -DTPA enhanced MR maysuggestthe diagnosis.

متن کاملMR imaging vs CT in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.
The MR findings in three patients with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis were reviewed and compared with CT findings in the same patients. Long-T2 lesions were demonstrated in each case, although their distribution varied with the clinical stage of the disease. MR, especially T2-weighted imaging, appears to be of great utility in the assessment of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.
