A55-year-old woman presented with 1-year history of mass in the right breast. Incisional biopsy showed the tumor to be malignant hemangiopericytoma from its histology. The tumor showed low--intermediate density and peripheral contrast enhancement on CT, and inhomogeneous mixed-signal intensity both on T1W and T2W images, and peripheral enhancement with Gd-DTPA on MRI with no invasion of the duct.
