Radiologic Staging of Gastrointestinal Neoplasms

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1984
In this article, the ability of computed tomography as well as other imaging methods to detect local and distant metastases in patients with either newly diagnosed or suspected recurrent gastrointestinal tumors is discussed. The role of the radiologic examination in the diagnosis of complications resulting from different types of treatment is also ...

Staging Systems for Musculoskeletal Neoplasms

Orthopedics, 1989
ABSTRACT: 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, 1995
The 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.

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.

The Staging and Surgery of Musculoskeletal Neoplasms

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1996
This review has outlined the surgical staging of benign and malignant musculoskeletal neoplasms. Based on their unique natural history, these neoplasms behave in a predictable fashion. The surgical staging system assigns progressively higher degrees of risks to the neoplasms based on their surgical grade, their anatomic location, and the presence or ...

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,

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.
