BACKGROUND Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is a rare tumor of the lung that accounts for 0.1-0.2% of all pulmonary tumors. To the best of our knowledge, brain metastasis from lung MEC is rare and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of this lesion have not been documented.

Although the incidence of lung cancer is increasing, tongue metastasis as the initial presentation of the tumor remains uncommon. Due to the rarity of tongue metastasis, little is known about its imaging findings. Herein we report the magnetic resonance...

The innocent reputation which the bacillus has enjoyed is, no doubt, due to the fact that despite its wide distribution in our natural surroundings it has rarely been rep...
