Myxoid liposarcoma (MLPS) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma, with propensity to metastasize to locations such as soft tissue and bone. Thus, whole-body MRI should be a consideration as part of staging for patients with a new diagnosis of MLPS since PET and CT may not identify extrapulmonary disease. Surveillance imaging should be tailored, with consideration of more frequent and longer duration of monitoring for large tumors or tumors with round cell component. This review focuses on studies evaluating imaging in MLPS as well as recent publications on survival and prognostic tools in MLPS.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
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.
