Overview

MRI, although not routinely used, may have a role in refining the staging and delineating the extent of the disease in surgical candidates especially with regard to chest wall and diaphragmatic invasion. Findings on MRI include iso- to slightly hyperintense on T1-weighted images and iso- to hyperintense on T2-weighted images. There is enhancement on contrast administration.^[1]

MRI

MRI, although not routinely used, may have a role in refining the staging and delineating the extent of the disease in surgical candidates especially with regard to chest wall and diaphragmatic invasion. The findings on MRI are tabulated below.^[1]


MRI component	Findings

T1	Iso- to slightly hyperintense compared to muscle
T2	Iso- to hyperintense compared to muscle
Contrast with gadolinium	Enhancement usually present

 ==Overview==
-Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): An MRI uses magnetic fields but which is a different imaging type from computed tomography (CT) to produce detailed images of the body. Like computed tomography (CT), a contrast agent may be injected into a patient’s vein to create a better picture. MRI scan takes longer time than CT scan.
