Summary
MR imaging is not routinely used for the evaluation of tophaceous gout. However, gout may have atypical clinical and radiologic findings. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis when a mass reveals heterogeneous and low signal intensity on T2 weighted images. We present MR imaging characteristics of gout tophi and arthritis in two patients.
