- perforating
- generalised
- one subcutaneous form: presenting as soft tissue mass

Plain radiograph
These have very little value. The only only manifestation is non-specific increased density in the subcutaneous compartment without involvement of bone involvement or mineralisation.
Ultrasound
Shows ill-defined solid mass that is hypoechoic to surrounding fat. It excludes a vascular of cystic lesion.
MRI
-
T1: fill-defined
subcutaneoussubcutaneous mass, isointense to muscle - T2: slightly hypointense signal intensity compared with fat, may show heterogeneous hyperintense lesion
- T1 C+: diffuse enhancement can be see
