Title: [Computed tomography of soft tissue sarcomas (author's transl)]. Author: Grabbe E, Heller M, Böcker W. Journal: Rofo; 1979 Oct; 131(4):372-8. PubMed ID: 159227. Abstract: CT findings in 50 patients with histologically verified soft tissue sarcomas are presented. In nearly all the cases the cross-sectional view and the higher resolution of density make it possible to determine exactly location of the tumors, their size and relationship to adjacent structures. Thus CT opens a new dimension, which is of great value for staging and therapy treatment planning. The high rank of CT in the follow-up after therapy and the detection of recurrent tumor is demonstrated. The contribution of CT, however, to the anatomic characteristics and its prospective value with the regard to soft tissue tumor is less important. Further limits of the method are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
