Overview

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Study of choice

  • MRI is the preferred diagnostic study of choice for pleomorphic adenoma.[1]

The comparison of various diagnostic studies for [disease name]

Test Sensitivity Specificity
MRI 43.9% 95%
CT

[Name of test with higher sensitivity and specificity] is the preferred investigation based on the sensitivity and specificity

Diagnostic results
MRI
  • MRI is the imaging modality of choice for pleomorphic adenoma.[2][1]
  • On T1-weighted images:
    • Pleomorphic adenoma's show homogeneous intensity. [3]
  • On T2-weighted images:
    • Marked hyperintensity reflects abundant myxochondroid stroma.[4]
    • Hypointensity reflects the fibrous capsule of the tumor.[4]
  • On Gd-T1weighted images:
    • It shows heterogeneous enhancement.[3]
Sequence of Diagnostic Studies

The various investigations must be performed in the following order:

  • CT is usually the first imaging modality of choice for pleomorphic adenoma.[1]
  • It helps in identifying the lesion and also assesses the extension of the tuomor.
  • MRI is the usually ordered investigation next after CT, for a more detailed study.[1]
  • It is a non-ionizing modality with excellent soft tissue distinction.

Name of Diagnostic Criteria

It is recommended that you include the criteria in a table. Make sure you always cite the source of the content and whether the table has been adapted from another source.

[Disease name] is primarily diagnosed based on clinical presentation. There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of [disease name].

OR

There is no single diagnostic study of choice for [disease name], though [disease name] may be diagnosed based on [name of criteria] established by [...].

OR

The diagnosis of [disease name] is made when at least [number] of the following [number] diagnostic criteria are met: [criterion 1], [criterion 2], [criterion 3], and [criterion 4].

OR

The diagnosis of [disease name] is based on the [criteria name] criteria, which includes [criterion 1], [criterion 2], and [criterion 3].

OR

[Disease name] may be diagnosed at any time if one or more of the following criteria are met:

  • Criteria 1
  • Criteria 2
  • Criteria 3

OR

IF there are clear, established diagnostic criteria

The diagnosis of [disease name] is made when at least [number] of the following [number] diagnostic criteria are met: [criterion 1], [criterion 2], [criterion 3], and [criterion 4].

OR

The diagnosis of [disease name] is based on the [criteria name] criteria, which include [criterion 1], [criterion 2], and [criterion 3].

OR

The diagnosis of [disease name] is based on the [definition name] definition, which includes [criterion 1], [criterion 2], and [criterion 3].

OR

IF there are no established diagnostic criteria

There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of [disease name].
