Fig 4. A 68-year-old man with mucoepidermoid carcinoma of sublingual gland. A, Axial T1-weighted (TR/TE = 500 ms/15 ms) image using 110-mm surface coil shows homogeneous tumor (arrows) of sublingual gland.

B, Axial fat-suppressed T2-weighted (TR/TE = 4677 ms/80 ms) image using 110-mm surface coil shows homogeneous tumor (arrows).

C, Axial ADC map shows that major part of tumor is of low ADCs.

D and E, Photomicrographs show proliferation of polygonal, clear cancer cells (D) and cancer cell nests in attenuated fibrous connective tissues (E). Original magnifications, 20x (D) and 10x (E). Hematoxylin-eosin staining.
