Magnetic resonance imaging of mediastinal paraganglioma.
The magnetic resonance (MR) findings are presented of a nonfunctioning mediastinal paraganglioma on both T1- and T2-weighted magnetic resonance images. The MR characteristics of this tumor differentiate it from previously reported functioning mediastinal paragangliomas (pheochromocytoma) and from other benign mediastinal neoplasms, although mediastinal bronchogenic carcinoma may produce a similar appearance.
