Axial T2WI (A) and coronal T2WI (B) show an ill-defined, irregular mass in the left parotid gland. The tumor is slightly hypointense with multiple small focal areas of obvious hyperintensity on T2WI (arrow). Contrast-enhanced axial (C) and coronal (D) T1WI show obvious heterogeneous enhancement with multiple small focal areas of necrosis (arrow)Back to article page
