Melanocytic Neoplasms II: Molecular Staging
2011The TNM staging categories and groupings of the updated 2009 American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Melanoma Staging System are outlined in Tables 6.1 and 6.2 [1]. “T ” parameters are defined by primary tumor thickness, ulceration, and mitotic status; “N” parameters by the number of lymph nodes with metastatic disease and extent of metastatic burden;

Laparoscopic Staging of Periampullary Neoplasms
2007The global concept of preoperative staging of malignancies is to select, as well as possible, those patients who are or are not candidates for operative resection. In the case of periampullary neoplasms, we have good, nonoperative palliation for patients with incurable neoplasms.

Stage specific transforming genes in lymphoid neoplasms
1985Identification of activated cellular transforming genes in a variety of neoplasms has been greatly facilitated by the use of the NIH 3T3 transfection assay. A unique property of the NIH 3T3 cells is that they have the ability to undergo transformation following integration of dominantly acting genes, possibly because they have already progressed some ...

Thoracic neoplasms: Imaging requirements for diagnosis and staging
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1984This article reviews the pathophysiology of thoracic neoplasms and discusses current imaging recommendations for diagnosis and staging of these tumors. Particular emphasis is given to primary lung cancers, which comprise a variety of tumors of differing histologic type and behavior.

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 ...

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 ...

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 Bone Neoplasms: An Orthopedic Oncologist's Perspective
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2000The process of staging bone tumors is complex. The goal of staging is to define the type of tumor and its extent. Like staging for other neoplasms, it stratifies patients into groups based on prognosis and established treatment protocols. Staging is a multidisciplinary effort involving orthopedic oncologists, musculoskeletal radiologists, and ...

CT and MR Imaging in Staging Bladder Neoplasms
Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1987Thirteen patients with bladder carcinoma were examined by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and CT to determine the relative accuracy of the modalities in staging bladder carcinoma. Magnetic resonance correctly identified the presence or absence of extravesical spread of carcinoma in 10 of 13 patients (77%).
