MR imaging is used in the spleen primarily to supplement CT scan studies. Because of its multiplanar capabilities and potential characterization of lesions on the basis of signal features, however, MR can provide important diagnostic information. This article reviews appropriate imaging techniques and the MR appearance of congenital anomalies, trauma, inflammatory and vascular disease, and neoplasms.

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.
