Figure 3. Magnetic resonance imaging of an acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma in the 66-year-old man in Case Report 1. (A) An axial T1-weighted image shows a left pelvic tumor with heterogeneous low to high signal intensity, which suggests hemorrhage in the tumor. (B, C) Axial (B) and coronal (C) T2-weighted images show a left pelvic tumor with heterogeneous low to slightly high signal intensity. (D) A diffusion-weighted image shows a left pelvic tumor with heterogeneous high signal intensity.
