  • Title: MRI and CT scan compared with microscopic histopathology in osteogenic sarcoma of the proximal tibia.
    Author: Milgrom C, Sigal R, Robin GC, Gazit D, Fields S, Benmair J, Caine Y, Atlan H.
    Journal: Orthop Rev; 1986 Mar; 15(3):165-9. PubMed ID: 3483188.
    Abstract:
    The authors report the case of a 15-year-old female who presented with a history of vague but constant pain about the medial aspect of her right knee. X-ray established the presence of an expanding lesion in the medial tibial plateau. Computerized axial tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were used in the evaluation of the lesion. The authors compare the preoperative CT and MRI findings with the microscopic histopathology of the amputation specimen and note that the CT scan underestimated the extent of the microscopic tumor boundaries, whereas MRI showed altered activity beyond these boundaries.
