Overview
MRI may be diagnostic of lymphangioma. Findings on MRI suggestive of lymphangioma include hyperintense signal enhancement due to cyst formation.[1][2][3][4]
MRI
- MRI image characteristics observed among lymphangioma patients include:[5]
- T1 weighted image demonstrates:
- Variable signal that depends on the protein content of the mass
- T2 weighted image demonstrates:
- Hyperintense signal enhancement due to cyst formation
