FIG 2. Images from the case of a 14-month-old female patient with left-sided neck swelling.

A, Unenhanced axial T1-weighted MR image shows an encapsulated mass in the left parotid gland.

B, After the administration of contrast material, marked contrast enhancement is seen. Note the vascular flow voids within the lesion.

C, Selected MR digital subtraction angiograms show early arterial filling of the hypervascular lesion and arteriovenous shunting into an early draining vein. This is consistent with a parotid hemangioma in the proliferative phase.
