Abstract

Objective: The aims of this article are to differentiate soft tissue masses showing low signal intensity on T2-weighted images (T2WIs) according to the histopathologic findings. Conclusion: To know relatively small numbered soft tissue masses with low signal intensities on T2WIs adding characteristic location, morphology, signal intensities on other sequences might be helpful for differential diagnosis of mostly non-specific soft tissue tumors on MRI.

목적: 본 연구는 T2 강조영상에서 저신호강도를 보이는 연부조직 종양의 특징적 자기공명영상 소견을 병리학적 소견과 연관지어 알아보고자 하였다. 결론: T2 강조영상에서 저신호강도를 보이는 드문 연부조직 종양의 종류에 대해 인지하고 동시에 특징적 위치, 모양, 다른 강조영상에서의 신호강도를 아는 것은 비특징적인 연부조직 종양의 감별진단에 도움이 되었다.
