  • Title: [Computed tomographic criteria for the diagnosis of variable manifestations of Paget's disease in the cerebral cranium and facial bones].
    Author: Minenkov GO, Shalabaev BD.
    Journal: Vestn Rentgenol Radiol; 2012; (4):56-8. PubMed ID: 23214031.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: to optimize the diagnosis of different stages of Paget's disease, by determining the extent of bone structural lesions in the cerebral and visceral cranium on the basis of computed tomography data. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Computed tomographic data were assessed by keeping in mind the structure, density, outlines, shadow shapes of the described tumor-like disease and the state of involved bone structures. Twelve patients with histologically verified Paget's disease were examined. RESULTS: The findings allowed the high informative value of computed tomography in diagnosing different stages of Paget's disease to be estimated in bone structural lesions in the cerebral and visceral cranium and skull base. Also, the obtained computed tomography data permitted the tracing of the extent of the lesion in the area under study.
