    Citation Excerpt :

    We think that the MRI findings might be different for each stage of NS. Anneroth and Hansen [11] described the histopathogenesis of NS by proposing five histological stages: infarction, sequestration, ulceration, repair stage, and healed stage. During infarction, necrosis of the glandular acini predominates and culminates in the formation of the ulcer.
