Overview

MRI is helpful in the diagnosis of glomus tumor. Findings on MRI suggestive of glomus tumor includes hyperintense signal on T2 and PD (proton-density) weighted imaging.[1]

MRI

  • MRI is helpful in the diagnosis of glomus tumor. Findings on MRI suggestive of glomus tumor includes:[1]
MRI component Findings

T1

  • Low to intermediate signal

T2

  • High signal

T1 with contrast

  • Contrast enhancement (usually uniform) due to vascularity
