“…The mass is necked by the sella diaphragm and has a snowball shape. b Sagittal T1WI indicated a hyperintensity area in the posterior superior part of the mass (arrow), believed to be an ectopic posterior lobe enhancement curve of the tumor on dynamic MRI may be useful for diagnosis [85,86]. Sparsely granulated tumors are larger than densely granulated tumors and tend to be more invasive [87].…”

“…In a report examining the signal enhancement rate of PitNETs/pituitary adenomas relative to normal brain tissue (putamen) during the early (within 39 s) and delayed (195 s) phases of dynamic MRI, GH-producing tumors had lower contrast enhancement rates than other PitNETs/pituitary adenomas in both the early and delayed phases, suggesting that the signal enhancement rate on dynamic MRI may be a useful parameter for distinguishing GH-producing PitNETs/pituitary adenomas from other PitNETs/pituitary adenomas [ 84 ]. It has also been suggested that the signal enhancement curve of the tumor on dynamic MRI may be useful for diagnosis [ 85 , 86 ]. Sparsely granulated tumors are larger than densely granulated tumors and tend to be more invasive [ 87 ].…”
