Overview
MRI
On MRI, necrotizing fasciitis is characterized by:[1][2]
- T1- weighted image:
- Loss of muscle texture and may show high signal intensity compatible with intramuscular hemorrhage
- T2- weighted image:
- Subcutaneous and intramuscular edema in a reticulated pattern
- Subfascial and interfascial crescentic fluid collection
