Example images of two periapical granulomas (radiographs, dental MRI and histopathology). Both lesions a, b were histologically confirmed as granulomas. On MRI, both granulomas show an ill-defined outer margin (arrow heads), an involvement the surrounding soft tissue in T2wFS and T1wFS+C (curved arrows), a wide peripheral rim with an inhomogeneous texture in T2wFS and T1wFS+C (curly brackets), and an inhomogeneous texture of the lesion center in T2wFS (straight arrows). T2wFS T2-weighted with fat saturation, T1wFS+C T1-weighted with fat saturation+contrast agent ax axial
