(a) CT: enhancing mass that has destroyed the left half of the body, left pedicle, and left transverse process of the L1 vertebra. (b) CT: bone window, partial destruction of the L1 body, absence of the left pedicle, and left transverse process. (c) MRI, axial T₁WI, with gadolinium: mass of L1 vertebra destroying the body and compressing the paraspinal soft tissue. (d) MRI, sagittal T₂WI: the hemangioma invading the spinal canal.
