Buenas tardes,
Necesito ayuda con la frase de un RM de pierna derecha debido a un tumor. No es toy segura del uso correcto de los tèrminos. My attempt is: "Hypointense image on T1 sequences, heterogeneous and mixed image on T2 sequences"
Thanks a lot!

CT scan imaging (hypointense, etc.)
It's not a question of being familiar with medical terms, CT scan terminology in this case, but also (and more importantly) with a) whom this report is written for (NOT for patients, but for fellow physicians or to meet study protocol requirements). I feel the translator is out of his/her depth here.
Discussion
"T1-weighted images" is okay but I definitely would not use "hyperintense images", only specific signals in the images are described as hypo/hyperintense/mixed/homogeneous etc. (that's what distinguishes certain tissues from others).

Look up for example "hypointense on T1-weighted images". I think that's what you're looking for.
