Case 1 from Table 1: 67-year-old man with history of previously excised spinal haemangioma and prostate cancer. MRI was performed following the development of new back pain. Sagittal T2-weighted sequence (a) shows abnormal signal in the right posterolateral vertebral body of T8, extending into the right pedicle, lamina and transverse process. There is an associated mass in the spinal canal, shown on axial short tau inversion recovery (STIR) sequence (b) at the level of T8. Haematoxylin and eosin stain of biopsied vertebral lesion (c) confirms a recurrent haemangioma, with no evidence of metastatic prostate carcinoma
