detection difficult, particularly without use of an organ-specific contrast agent. The authors …

The spleen is generally not considered a challenge to the radiologist. Most often it poses a
problem by anomalies or an irregular but normal contrast enhancement; however, a variety …

This study was undertaken to define the MR appearance of splenic tumors in 16 cancer
