Table 2 Relationship between MR signal intensity and histologic components [3]
From: Multimodality imaging features of desmoid tumors: a head-to-toe spectrum
DTs histologic components | MR signal intensity | ||
|---|---|---|---|
T1wi | T2wi | Contrast enhancement | |
Myxoid matrix | Low | High | Intense |
Cellular stroma | Intermediate to low | Intermediate to high | Moderate |
Fibrous tissue/collagen bands | Low | Low | Absent |
