Quality of Initial MRI Reports for Soft-Tissue Sarcomas and Their Association with Radiologic Recognition of Sarcoma

Objectives

Although MRI is the preferred modality for evaluating suspected soft-tissue sarcomas (STSs), initial MRI reports are frequently incomplete and often fail to document key features that support diagnosis, staging, and timely referral. This study assessed the quality of initial MRI reports for STSs and identified the specific reporting characteristics most strongly associated with diagnostic correlation.
