Figure 3: In the MRI examination of a 66-year-old female patient; lesions reported histopathologically as squamous cell carcinoma located on the right half of the tongue, with irregular borders not exceeding the midline that isointense on fat-suppressed T1-weighted image (a), heterogeneously hyperintense on fat-suppressed T2-weighted image (b), heterogeneous contrast-enhanced on fat-suppressed T1-weighted image (c), and containing internal cystic/necrotic areas (short arrow). The superior jugular (level 2) metastatic lymph node located in the right neck region of the same patient showed homogeneous, minimally hyperintense in fat-suppressed T1-weighted axial section (d) and heterogeneously hyperintense in fat-suppressed T2-weighted section (e) and peripherally enhanced (arrowhead), internal cystic/necrotic content (arrow) in contrast-enhanced fat-suppressed T1-weighted section (f). MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging
