From: Preoperative rectal cancer staging with phased-array MR
In this picture it is represented on axial T2 TSE wi (8a) a T3-stage lesion infiltrating anterior rectal wall and perirectal fat; within mesorectum it is possible to appreciate multiple lymphnodes (white arrows in 8a-c). The hystolopathological slides (8d-e) and the corresponding slices of the gross specimen show the exact correlation with MR findings.
