Magnetic Resonance is the imaging method with the highest diagnostic accuracy for the study of vascular malformations as it allows classification, morphologycal analysis, evaluation of spatial extension and their relationship with the surrounding anatomical structures.
Despite that, MR exams to study soft-tissue vascular malformations in children are often a problem for the general radiologist who is not familiar with such a spectrum of pathologies-pathologies usually suspected by a pediatric surgeon after performing a first (often doubtful) ultrasound examination.
