Overview
MRI
- Pelvic MRI may be diagnostic of testicular seminoma.[1]
- On MRI, seminoma is characterized by multinodular tumors of uniform signal intensity.
- Findings on MRI suggestive of pilocytic astrocytoma are tabulated below:[1]
| MRI component | Findings |
|---|---|
| T1 | Hypointense to normal testicular tissue |
| T2 | Inhomogeneous enhancement |
