The optimal technique for examining mediastinal masses is the use of T1 weighted spin-echo sequences (TR 500 msec/TE 17 msec) in transverse and coronal slice orientation pre and post contrast application. This setup provides an excellent morphological depiction of anatomy and pathology as well as T2 comparable information about tumor structure without the disadvantage of a reduction of the signal-to-noise ratio.

D008279	Magnetic Resonance Imaging	Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.
