Fig. 2A Pathologically proven benign lymph node in 62-year-old man with prostate cancer. Unenhanced (A) and ferumoxtran-10-enhanced (B) T2*-weighted gradient-refocused echo images of pelvis show 8-mm lymph node (arrow) with prominent hilum. Less-experienced reviewer 1 required both unenhanced and contrast-enhanced images to make correct diagnosis, whereas more-experienced reviewer 2 was able to characterize node as benign on basis of contrast-enhanced image alone.
