Magnetic resonance imaging of intraosseous lipomas: a radiologic-pathologic correlation

Skeletal Radiology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Four patients with intraosseous lipomas were studied with magnetic resonance imaging. The imaging features and histology of each tumor were compared. Magnetic resonance imaging was very helpful in establishing a pathologic diagnosis. If a severe degree of involution was present, then the magnetic resonance findings could be ambiguous, making diagnosis more difficult.
