Conventional Modalities and Novel, Emerging Imaging Techniques for Musculoskeletal Tumors.
BACKGROUND Imaging of musculoskeletal tumors requires a multimodality approach and includes radiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS Topics related to primary bone and soft-tissue tumors are reviewed. The fundamental imaging principles are discussed as well as the applications of emerging imaging modalities. RESULTS MRI is the preferred technique ...
متن کاملImaging-guided prostate biopsy: conventional and emerging techniques.
Transrectal ultrasonography (US)-guided biopsy is the standard approach for histopathologic diagnosis of prostate cancer. However, this technique has multiple limitations owing to the operator's inability in most cases to directly visualize and target prostate lesions. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the prostate overcomes many of these limitations by directly depicting areas of abnormality ...
متن کاملImaging Breast Density: Established and Emerging Modalities.
Mammographic density has been proven as an independent risk factor for breast cancer. Women with dense breast tissue visible on a mammogram have a much higher cancer risk than women with little density. A great research effort has been devoted to incorporate breast density into risk prediction models to better estimate each individual's cancer risk. In recent years, the passage of breast densit...
متن کاملImaging evaluation of musculoskeletal tumors.
In this chapter, we review different imaging modalities, including radiography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and nuclear medicine scintigraphy, and their application to musculoskeletal neoplasm. Advantages and limitations of each modality are reviewed, and suggestions for imaging approach are provided.
متن کاملEmerging treatment modalities for advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
It was with great interest that we read the article titled “Neoadjuvant therapy for advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: an emerging treatment modality?” by I. Perysinakis et al published in the first issue of 2016 of the Journal.1 The authors review the recent literature concerning advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) and highlight the fact that there is increasing evidence ...
