I like both hemangioma and notochord rest but per Avneesh CT axial on
those to look for the stipulated appearance or sclerosis with notochord
rests would help. To me despite the signal changes it has nonaggressive
characteristics (ie. No cortical destruction or appreciable soft tissue
components. (Damon)
