    AbstractThere are various mass-like lesions that can mimic true neoplasms in the spine, including inflammatory, infectious, vascular, congenital, and degenerative etiologies. While some lesions have distinctive imaging features that suggest a correct diagnosis, others have overlapping characteristics that do not allow their differentiation based solely on their imaging findings. For entities with nonspecific imaging features, knowledge of the clinical and laboratory information is critical to provide an accurate diagnosis.Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
