A wide spectrum of space-occupying soft-tissue lesions may be discovered on MRI studies, either as incidental findings or as palpable or symptomatic masses. Characterization of a lesion as benign or indeterminate is the most important step toward optimal treatment and avoidance of unnecessary biopsy or surgical intervention.
The systemic MRI interpretation approach presented in this article enables the identification of cases in which sarcoma can be excluded.
MRI 研究中可能会发现广泛的占位性软组织病变,这些病变可能是偶然发现的,也可能是可触及或有症状的肿块。将病变定性为良性或不确定是实现最佳治疗、避免不必要的活检或手术干预的最重要步骤。
本文提出的系统 MRI 解读方法能够识别出可以排除肉瘤的病例。
