Satisfactory Essays

Figure 41. Common hemangioma of infancy in a 9-month-old girl who presented with a right shoulder mass. Coronal unenhanced T1-weighted (a), STIR (b), and gadolinium-enhanced fat-suppressed T1-weighted (c) MR images show a well-defined, lobulated soft-tissue mass confined to the subcutaneous soft tissues. The mass is isointense relative to muscle on the unenhanced T1-weighted image, is hyperintense on the STIR image, and shows diffuse enhancement on the gadolinium-enhanced image. All three images demonstrate small, intralesional signal void foci due to high-flow vessels.quoted from(Navarro et al;2009).
