Various histologic types of neurogenic tumors may originate in the mediastinum and chest wall. It is possible to make accurate diagnosis of these tumors by using the multiplanar capability and high contrast resolution of MR imaging because of these characteristic imaging findings. MR and histologic features of these tumors are illustrated and described in this essay.
多种组织学类型的神经源性肿瘤可能起源于纵隔和胸壁。由于这些肿瘤具有特征性的影像学表现,利用磁共振成像(MR)的多平面成像能力和高对比度分辨率可以对其做出准确诊断。本文阐述并描述了这些肿瘤的MR特征和组织学特征。
