Linguine Sign

A fanciful term for the appearance of T2-weighted MR images of a breast with a ruptured implant, which is characterized by multiple fine, curvilinear low-signal-intensity strands of silicone—the 'linguine'—which correspond to the collapsed implant shell, within the high-signal-intensity gel—the 'linguine sauce'
