A Case Study on Assessment of the Role of Different MRI Sequences and Contrast in Determining Tumor Margins in Musculoskeletal Tumors
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 3
Abstract
MRI is the most useful investigation following plain x-rays in the detection and further evaluation of both bone and soft tissue sarcomas. The multiplanar capability, combined with the excellent soft tissue contrast and anatomical detail, mean that even small soft tissue or bony lesions can be detected withaccuracy. The MRI appearance of some tissues is characteristic, so that the diagnosis may be apparent or the differential diagnoses narrowed following the MRI scan. Tissues that have a characteristic appearance on MRI include fat and hyaline cartilage. Some vascular lesions are also typical, such as arteriovenous malformations that exhibit flow voids due to rapid blood flow and venous malformations with bright slow flowing or stagnant blood. Other tissues may have an appearance that, while not diagnostic, may be suggestive of a few tissue types, for example fibrous tissue, haemorrhagic tissue orcalcification
