Peripheral nerve sheath tumours (PNST) may be benign or malignant. Benign PNSTs include neurofibroma and schwannoma. Neurogenic tumours share certain characteristic imaging features, suggested by a fusiform-shaped mass with tapered ends, the “split-fat” sign, atrophy of the muscles supplied by the involved nerve, the “fascicular sign,” and the “target sign”; these imaging features are best demonstrated on magnetic resonance imaging. This pictorial essay emphasizes the characteristic signs and distinguishing features of PNSTs on imaging.
