Guidelines for imaging and staging of neuroblastic tumors: consensus report from the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group Project.
Neuroblastoma is an enigmatic disease entity; some tumors disappear spontaneously without any therapy, while others progress with a fatal outcome despite the implementation of maximal modern therapy. However, strong prognostic factors can accurately predict whether children have "good" or "bad" disease at diagnosis, and the clinical stage is currently the most significant and clinically relevan...
متن کاملImaging neuroblastoma: what the radiologist needs to know
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid malignancy in children. The tumor has variable biological behavior that can be predicted by patient age, genetic features, tumor biology and extent of disease at diagnosis. Factors chosen by various cooperative groups to define risk of treatment failure have been non-uniform. Therefore, historically, it has been difficult to compare outcomes a...
متن کاملAdult versus Pediatric Neuroblastoma: The M.D. Anderson Cancer Center Experience
Background. Staging and treatment of adult neuroblastoma has yet to be formalized. We sought to determine the utility of the pediatric classification system in adults and determine the efficacy of different treatment modalities. Methods. Medical records of 118 adults (patients >17 years old) and 112 pediatric patients (ages 2-17), who were treated for neuroblastoma at M.D. Anderson Cancer Cente...
متن کاملRevised International Staging System for Multiple Myeloma: A Report From International Myeloma Working Group.
PURPOSE The clinical outcome of multiple myeloma (MM) is heterogeneous. A simple and reliable tool is needed to stratify patients with MM. We combined the International Staging System (ISS) with chromosomal abnormalities (CA) detected by interphase fluorescent in situ hybridization after CD138 plasma cell purification and serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to evaluate their prognostic value in n...
متن کاملStaging of neuroblastoma at imaging: report of the radiology diagnostic oncology group.
PURPOSE To compare the accuracies of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, and bone scintigraphy in staging disease in patients with neuroblastoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-six children with newly diagnosed neuroblastoma were enrolled in a multicenter prospective cohort study. CT, MR, and bone scintigraphy were used to evaluate tumor stage. Sensitivity and specificity...
