Figure 2 Magnetic resonance imaging sequences: A nodular, mass-like area of abnormal signal intensity measuring approximately 2. 4 cm × 3.5 cm is visible within the spleen. A: T1-weighted imaging shows a heterogeneous, slightly hyperintense signal; B: T2-weighted imaging demonstrates a heterogeneous, hypointense signal with well-defined, smooth margins; C: Diffusion-weighted imaging shows altered diffusion patterns; D-F: No enhancement is observed on contrast-enhanced scans. Orange arrow: Visible lesions.
