Objective To investigate the imaging features of intracranial primary central nervous system T-cell lymphoma (T-PCNSL). Methods Retrospective analysis of 2 cases of pathologically confirmed T-PCNSL MRI and MRS and performance. Results T-PCNSL imaging features are as follows: occur in deep brain tissue, such as frontal lobe, corpus callosum and basal ganglia. MRI on the lesion was equal, low signal, T2 was equal, slightly lower signal, clear boundary. Enhance the performance was significantly enhanced, the characteristics of the performance, including "missing sign." On the 1 H-MRS, T-PCNSL was characterized by the presence of high lactic acid and lipid peaks, increased choline/creatine (Cho/Cr) ratio, and N-acetylaspartic acid/creatine (NAA/Cr) ratio decreased. Conclusion The MRI of T-PCNSL has certain characteristic manifestation.
