Abstract:
Granular cell tumors (GrCT) are histologically unique neoplasms that often manifest as painless solitary nodules located in the dermis or submucosal tissue. In this article we analyze the radiologic features of this type of tumor in five patients by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), analyzing morphologic and signal characteristics. MR imaging findings were similar to other publications and we demonstrate low ADC values in our series.
