What does and mri look like if bone cancer is found?

It is a good imaging: Mri is a good imaging tool for sarcomas. It will show the normal anatomy of the bone and the additional growth arising from the bone and we can see the exact dimensions of the cancer and its local extent of spread and invasion into the surrounding tissues.

Agressive lesion : It depends on the location, but generally malignancies of bone will have an aggressive appearance with periosteal reaction, occasionally associated soft tissue mass component and surrounding edema of soft tissue and in the medullary canal.
