In order to evaluate the pathological alteration in soft tissue tumors, we focused on the color, distribution, and morphology of the images, based on the tumor components. We could classify soft tissue tumors by texture analysis using MRI. T2-weighted images were more useful for classifying these tumors than T1-weighted images. Texture analysis was extremely useful for diagnosis of soft tissue tumors.
