Spinal Hemangioma

  1. fatty stroma leads to high SI on T1 and T2
  2. atypical hemangiomas do not show increased T1
  3. chemical shift imaging demonstrates lipid for making the diagnosis
  4. in doubt CT, bone scan or repeat MRI
  5. atypical hemangioms may show high T2 on fat-suppressed images due to free water and slow flowing blood
  6. CT shows typical thickened vertical trabeculae
