Overview

On a T1 weighted brain MRI image, neurblastoma is characterized by a hyperintense, heterogeneous, and necrotic mass.^[1]

Neuroblastoma observed on coronal MRI of the abdomen as a well defined mass lesion in right suprarenal region^[1]
Neuroblastoma observed on transverse MRI of the abdomen^[1]
Neuroblastoma observed on MRI as a large mass which extends into the spinal canal and causes significant cord compression^[1]
