The objective of this review is to highlight the major imaging characteristics of the main soft‐tissue sarcoma histotypes observed in the group “Sarcomi” of the Istituto Oncologico Veneto in the last 5 years. A literature review was performed using PubMed and textbooks. Radiological imaging can guide the diagnosis for the subset of lesions that have typical clinical and imaging features. Soft‐tissue tumors are common in clinical practice and a systematic clinical and imaging approach may guide the diagnosis. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2013;37:791–804. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
