Small MFH series describes US/MRI features; leaves open diagnostic utility pending larger validation.
Observational (n=12)
Ultrasound and MRI provide characteristic imaging features that can aid in the diagnosis of malignant fibrous histiocytoma in soft tissues of middle-aged and older adults.
Liang et al. (2019) conducted an observational in Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of soft tissue (n=12). Ultrasound and MRI was evaluated on Imaging features (ultrasound and MRI) compared with pathology. Ultrasound and MRI of soft tissue malignant fibrous histiocytoma revealed characteristic lobulated masses with mixed signals, necrosis, and abundant blood flow in 12 patients.
