Transbronchial needle aspiration staging of bronchogenic carcinoma.

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 2015
Transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) has been advocated as a reliable technique in the nonsurgical staging of patients with bronchogenic carcinoma. Some have questioned the reliability of TBNA, however. We used TBNA directed by computed tomography (CT)

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

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.

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 ...

Current Concepts Review - Evaluation and Staging of Musculoskeletal Neoplasms*

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1998
Staging is the process of classifying a tumor, especially a malignant tumor, with respect to its degree of differentiation as well as its local and distant extent, in order to estimate the prognosis for the patient. Evaluation of the histological and imaging studies of a tumor allows the physician to formulate a rational strategy for treatment with ...

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 ...

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,

Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma: Diagnosis, Staging, Pitfalls and Follow-up.

Seminars in ultrasound, CT, and MR, 2017
Malignant pleural mesothelioma is the most common primary neoplasm of the pleura. Imaging evaluation is essential in diagnosis, staging, and assessment of treatment response in malignant pleural mesothelioma. Computed tomography is the most commonly used

Role of computerized tomography in the staging of gastrointestinal neoplasms

Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 2001
AbstractGastrointestinal 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.
