Objectives

After participating in this educational activity, attendees should be able to:

1| Share a structured MR-based approach to characterizing mediastinal masses integrating signal characteristics with compartment-based anatomy to refine the differential.
2| Recognize the complementary role and limitations of PET/CT in mediastinal mass evaluation, including common false positives/negatives.
3| Apply an integrated MR + PET/CT diagnostic framework to challenging cases, enabling confident differentiation of benign vs malignant entities and guiding biopsy, follow-up, or surgical planning.
