The MR appearance of eight bronchogenic cysts is reported. All the cysts appeared homogeneous and were of very high signal intensity, approximating that of CSF on spin-echo T2-weighted imaging, and of relatively high intensity, between that of muscle and subcutaneous fat on T1-weighted imaging. The cysts were round or ovoid and were well demarcated. These findings are consistent with the fluid-containing properties of cysts.
