Chondrosarcoma is a malignant bone tumour that develops from cartilage cells. It tends to grow slowly and may cause vague pain for years before diagnosis. An MRI may show changes in bone and cartilage consistent with a chondrosarcoma. Finding a chondrosarcoma early may allow for surgical removal before it grows or spreads to other structures. MRI is excellent for characterising chondrosarcoma, assessing cortical destruction and soft tissue extension with superior detail to CT.
