Discrepant lesion size estimated on T1- and fat-suppressed T2-weighted MRI: diagnostic value for differentiation between inflammatory pseudotumor and carcinoma of the nasopharynx

PURPOSE:Nasopharyngeal inflammatory pseudotumor (NIPT) is hard to differentiate from infiltrating nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) on conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The purpose of this study is to determine whether discrepant lesion sizes estimated on T1- and fat-suppressed T2-weighted...
