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.

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 ...

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

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 ...

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.

[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 ...
