• Fibromas and giant cell tumors of the tendon sheath have distinct features on MRI, including differences in lesion morphology and intensity patterns, which can be used for differential diagnosis. • Among other signs, GCTTS are more uniform than FTS, and FTS have a striped or disordered pattern. • Tumors were classified with 90% accuracy into either FTS or GCTTS based on a combination of two features: homogenous signal and hypointensity shape on PDWI.
