Fig. 6From: Role of diffusion weighted MR-imaging in the evaluation of malignant mediastinal lesionsHodgkin lymphoma: A 51-year-old male with an anterior (prevascular) mediastinal mass identified on CT. The patient clinically presented with constitutional symptoms (unexplained fever and weight loss), dyspnea, cough, and retrosternal chest pain. a Axial T1 WI, b axial T2 WI, c axial STIR WI, and d sagittal BFFE WI show a well-defined ovoid-shaped anterior mediastinal mass displaying intermediate T1 and heterogeneous T2 and STIR signal intensities. The mass shows restricted diffusion; with the predominant bright areas on the e DWI corresponding to dark areas on the f ADC map. ADCmean = 0.890 × 10−3 mm2/s and ADCmin = 0.624 × 10−3 mm2/sBack to article page
