  • Title: [The computed tomography of the malignant thoracic space-occupying process under special consideration of radiotherapeutic points of view (author's transl)].
    Author: Schnabel K, Herrmann HJ, Claussen C.
    Journal: Strahlentherapie; 1978 May; 154(5):309-16. PubMed ID: 580658.
    Abstract:
    The data of 70 patients with a malignant thoracic space-occupying process were compared in order to find out the differences between computed tomography and conventional X-ray diagnosis (thorax radiography, hilum tomography), the radiotherapeutic aspects of these methods being taken under special consideration. Computed tomography is excellently suited for the establishment of therapeutic schemes because it is the only technique producing individual cross-sectional views of the thorax which are in correct scale and have a high resolving power. Contrary to thorax radiography and hilum shadow, the computed tomography offers some additional diagnostic information in several special fields.
