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 nonspecific soft tissue tumors on MRI.
