Overview
Abdominal MRI is helpful in the diagnosis of pseudomyxoma peritonei. On abdominal MRI, pseudomyxoma peritonei is characterized by a mass which is hypointense on T1-weighted MRI and hyperintense on T2-weighted MRI.[1]
MRI
On abdominal MRI, pseudomyxoma peritonei is characterized by:
- T1: typically low signal
- T2: typically high signal
- T1 with gadolinium contrast: may show enhancement
