Imaging of non-neurogenic peripheral nerve malignancy-a case series and systematic review.

Non-neurogenic PNMs account for 7% of PNT in our series and occur due to metastases and primary intraneural malignancy. Although non-neurogenic PNMs exhibit a non-specific MRI appearance, they lack typical signs of neurogenic tumors such as the target sign. Quantitative imaging features identified by DWI (low ADC) and F18-FDG PET/CT (high SUV) may be helpful clues to the diagnosis.
