  • Title: [Computed tomography in malignant primary bone tumors].
    Author: Kersjes W, Harder T, Haeffner P.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1990 Apr; 43(4):137-40. PubMed ID: 2339256.
    Abstract:
    The importance of computed tomography is examined in malignant primary bone tumours using a strongly defined examination group of 13 Patients (six Ewing's-sarcomas, five osteosarcomas, one chondrosarcoma and one spindle-shaped cell sarcoma). Computed tomography is judged superior compared to plain radiographs in recognition of bone marrow infiltration and presentation of parosteal tumour parts as well as in analysis of tissue components of tumours, CT is especially suitable for therapy planning and evaluating response to therapy. CT does not provide sufficient diagnostic information to determine dignity and exact diagnosis of bone tumours.
