RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Neurothekeoma of the Tongue: CT, MR, and FDG PET Imaging Findings JF American Journal of Neuroradiology JO Am. J. Neuroradiol.

Choi YR 2006 UL http://www.ajnr.org/content/27/9/1823.abstract AB SUMMARY: We report CT, MR, and fluorodeoxyglucose–positron-emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging findings of a case of cellular neurothekeoma of the tongue, a rare benign soft-tissue tumor with neural differentiation, occurring in a 15-year-old girl. CT and MR imaging showed a well-defined, well-enhancing submucosal soft-tissue mass in the midline dorsal tongue. There was high FDG uptake on PET scans. Although imaging findings are rather nonspecific, neurothekeoma may be one of diagnostic inclusions of soft-tissue masses of the tongue in a young female patient.
