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 ...

Value of liver scintiscan in staging of testicular neoplasm
Urology, 1978A nineteen-year retrospective study of the usefulness of liver scanning in the staging evaluation of germinal cell testicular neoplasms was undertaken at the National Naval Medical Center. Of 94 patients, 90 (96 per cent) demonstrated accurate correlation between liver scan and histopathologic diagnosis.

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.

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.

Computed Tomographic Staging of Malignant Gastric Neoplasms
Radiology, 1979Eight 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.

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 ...

Endoscopic Ultrasonography in the Diagnosis and Staging of Pancreatic Neoplasms
International Journal of Gastrointestinal Cancer, 2001Pancreatic 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.

Role of computerized tomography in the staging of gastrointestinal neoplasms
Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 2001AbstractGastrointestinal 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.

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%).
