| Enhancement pattern | TB (n = 55) | Leukemias | P | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AL (n = 19) | CLL (n = 32) | TB vs AL | TB vs CLL | ||
| Peripheral | 43(78.2) | 0(0) | 0(0) | 0 | 0 |
| Homogeneous | 3(5.5) | 15(78.9) | 27(84.4) | 0 | 0 |
| Homogeneous mixed with peripheral | 9(16.4) | 4(21.1) | 5(15.6) | 0.729 | 0.928 |
| Multilocular | 23(41.8) | 0(0) | 0(0) | 0.001 | 0 |
