In this report, we present brain magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and conventional magnetic resonance MR imaging findings of early-stage (stage II) SSPE in an 8-year-old child. MRS demonstrated increased myo-inositol/creatine and choline/creatine ratios, and a decrea...

MR Findings of Sclerosing Hemangioma ofthe Lung : A Case Report

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...
