Lumbar vertebral chordoma: diffusion-weighted imaging findings are helpful to narrow the differential diagnosis. A case report.

abstract：:Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an extremely useful modality for evaluation of the complex pathophysiology of the liver. The high degree of soft tissue contrast afforded by MRI accurately detects and characterizes both focal and diffuse abnormalities of the liver. In this article we present a pictorial review of M...
