Staging Systems for Musculoskeletal Neoplasms
Orthopedics, 1989ABSTRACT: In the treatment of musculoskeletal neoplasms, preservation of limb function and prolongation of survival have improved over the past decade. With the current emphasis on limb salvage procedures for local control of tumors, and with the addition of adjunctive therapy, the ability to classify and stage these unusual tumors is important in ...

Diagnosis and Staging of Pancreatic Neoplasms
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1995The relative value of current approaches to the diagnosis and staging of pancreatic cancer is discussed. A rational sequence of testing is recommended based on the clinical presentation of the patient and the local institutional expertise and facilities that are available.

MAGNETIC RESONANCE STAGING OF NEOPLASMS OF THE UTERUS
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1994The 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 ...

Computed Tomography in the Staging of Testicular Neoplasms
Radiology, 1979Twenty-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

Staging of musculoskeletal neoplasms
Skeletal Radiology, 1984The 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, 2001AbstractThis 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 ...

A System of Staging Musculoskeletal Neoplasms
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986A 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.

[CT in the staging of neoplasms of the gallbladder].
La Radiologia medica, 1990The 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 ...

Staging of colonic neoplasms by colonoscopic miniprobe ultrasonography
International Journal of Colorectal Disease, 2003In contrast to the situation in the upper gastrointestinal tract staging of colonic neoplasm by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) has not gained importance because until yet preoperative staging is without any clinical consequences. This may change with the introduction of minimally invasive surgical procedures and endoscopic resection techniques as an ...

Detection and Staging of Renal Neoplasms
2000CT 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.
