Overview
MRI may be diagnostic of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. Findings on MRI suggestive of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
MRI
T1: usually isointense to muscle; heterogeneous signal on T1 (if present) may useful in differentiating from a neurofibroma 3 T2: can have low signal due to high collagen content 4
