Acute salpingitis in a 25-year-old woman with pelvic pain and mild neutrophilic leukocytosis. Sagittal fat-suppressed (a), oblique-coronal (b) and oblique-axial (c) T2-weighted images show slightly dilated left fallopian tube with thickened walls (arrowheads). On axial diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI, b = 800 s/mm2) image (d), the tubal wall thickening demonstrates restricted diffusion (arrowheads), finding consistent with acute inflammation. Note pelvic peritoneal effusion (asterisk)
