The Spleen Revisited: An Overview on Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Figure 8

Sarcoidosis. Axial T2wi FSE with fat suppression (a) and postcontrast axial T1wi 3D-GRE with fat suppression in the arterial (b), venous (c) and interstitial phases (d). Low signal intensity nodules are depicted in the spleen on the T2wi sequences (arrows, (a)). The lesions are most conspicuous on fat-suppressed T2wi or early phase (b) contrast-enhanced images. Note the progressive enhancement of the sarcoid lesions on venous (c) and delayed images (d).
