MAGNETIC RESONANCE STAGING OF NEOPLASMS OF THE UTERUS

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1994
The treatment of patients with uterine neoplasms may be significantly altered by the stage of disease at the time of diagnosis. A noninvasive and accurate means of staging these tumors is therefore desirable. This article discusses the magnetic resonance imaging techniques and findings that are essential for the accurate staging of uterine neoplasms ...

Staging of musculoskeletal neoplasms

Skeletal Radiology, 1984
The purposes of a staging system for musculoskeletal neoplasms are to: 1) incorporate the significant prognostic factors into a system which describes progressive degrees of risk of local recurrence and distant metastases to which a patient is subject, 2) stratify the stages so they have specific implications for surgical management,

Role of ultrasonography in the staging of gastrointestinal neoplasms

Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 2001
AbstractThis article reviews the capabilities and limits of ultrasonography (US) in the staging of gastrointestinal neoplasms. US is a well‐established tool in the investigation of abdominal diseases. Its role is very important in the first approach to liver, gallbladder, biliary, and pancreatic diseases, but its abilities for accurate staging may be ...

Computed Tomography in the Staging of Testicular Neoplasms

Radiology, 1979
Twenty-six patients with primary testicular tumor were evaluated by computed tomography. It was highly accurate in differentiating lymph node metastases from testicular tumors. CT scanning may reveal tumor in lymph nodes not normally opacified during bipedal lymphangiography. It can also be used in treatment planning, follow-up, and in localizing sites

A System of Staging Musculoskeletal Neoplasms

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986
A system for staging benign and malignant musculoskeletal lesions is presented. This system, first devised at the University of Florida in 1977, was based on data assembled from 1968 through 1976. It was field tested by the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society and published in Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research in 1980.

Detection and Staging of Renal Neoplasms

2000
CT is widely used in the detection and staging of renal neoplasms (Smith et al. 1989; Stuart Wolf 1998). In comparison with conventional CT, helical CT has further improved the evaluation of renal masses, and particularly the detection and characterization of small renal neoplasms (Bosniak and Rofsky 1996; Curry 1995; Davidson et al. 1997; Szolar et al.

[CT in the staging of neoplasms of the gallbladder].

La Radiologia medica, 1990
The authors report the results of 50 cases of gallbladder carcinoma studied by means of CT, which were observed since 1984. Twenty-five cases were confirmed at surgery and 25 were selected among those in which CT, clinical history, natural disease evolution and matching with other instrumental and laboratory examinations were highly suggestive of ...

Computed Tomographic Staging of Malignant Gastric Neoplasms

Radiology, 1979
Eight patients with proved gastric carcinoma and 3 with gastric lymphoma were studied preoperatively with computed tomography. CT accurately identified abnormal stomach wall thickening and intra-abdominal tumor extension. Mural thickening was seen on the CT scan when a moderately distended stomach had a wall more than 10 mm thick.

Role of computerized tomography in the staging of gastrointestinal neoplasms

Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 2001
AbstractGastrointestinal neoplasms are very common diseases, and the first challenge for clinicians is to define the extent of the tumor in order to plan the best treatment. The role of computerized tomography in assessing this kind of patient is well established worldwide.

Endoscopic Ultrasonography in the Diagnosis and Staging of Pancreatic Neoplasms

International Journal of Gastrointestinal Cancer, 2001
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of death among Americans. Twenty-eight thousand cases of pancreatic cancer are diagnosed annually and about the same number of patients die of pancreatic cancer every year. Most patients with pancreatic cancer are diagnosed when the tumor is 3 cm or more in diameter.
