title: Intracellular lipid in ovarian thecomas detected by dual-echo chemical shift magnetic resonance imaging: report of 2 cases.
abstract: Thecoma of the ovary is a stromal tumor composed of lipid-containing cells with a variable component of fibroblasts. To our knowledge, there have been no reports in the English literature describing detection of intracellular lipid in thecomas by preoperative imaging. We present 2 cases of thecomas of the ovary, in which intratumoral lipid was detected using dual-echo chemical shift magnetic resonance imaging.
