  • Title: Computed tomography in the evaluation of musculoskeletal neoplasms.
    Author: deSantos LA, Goldstein HM, Murray JA, Wallace S.
    Journal: Radiology; 1978 Jul; 128(1):89-94. PubMed ID: 663230.
    Abstract:
    In a study of 62 musculoskeletal neoplasms, computed tomography contributed little to establishing tissue diagnosis. Its primary value lay in the assessment of intraosseous and/or extraosseous extent of disease. CT also established the presence or absence of disease in a small number of cases with clinically questionable findings. In most cases, conventional radiographic methods were superior in diagnosing musculoskeletal neoplasms.
