Overview

Abdominal MRI may be diagnostic of angiomyolipoma. On MRI, angiomyolipoma is characterized by high signal intensity on non-fat saturated sequences, and loss of signal following fat saturation.

MRI

Abdominal MRI may be diagnostic of angiomyolipoma. On MRI fat saturated techniques demonstrate:

  • High signal intensity on non-fat saturated sequences
  • Loss of signal following fat saturation
