Inhomogeneity of the pituitary indicative of local metastases. Sagittal T1-weighted MRI (a) and coronal T2-weighted MRI (b) of the pituitary showed signal increase suggesting hemorrhage (arrows). Coronal T1-weighted MRI (c) with contrast shows inhomogeneous enhancement of pituitary with metastasis.

T2-weighted MRI, but coronal T1-weighted MRI with contrast showed inhomogeneous enhancement of pituitary with metastasis. The concluding diagnosis was a sellar metastasis (Figure 1) of the known metastasizing breast cancer. This lesion was new, as it had not been present in a PET scan 2 months earlier.
