Synopsis

Unlike most of the recent publications on bone tumours, this book has been written by radiologists, and hence with the emphasis on the radiologic approach to the diagnosis of bone tumours. The authors provide clear and comprehensive descriptions of clinical and radiologic data of bone tumours and tumor-like lesions, and how this information can best be used to arrive at a reliable diagnosis; this data is also presented in the form of easy-to-consult tables. The book gives a clear overview of the diversity in the radiographic image of all malignant and benign bone tumors, and of many tumor-like bone lesions, by displaying, more than 1500 illustrations (chosen from more than 8000 fully documented files from the Netherlands Committee on Bone Tumors) which stress the typical and atypical features that would fit a diagnosis. As well as the conventional radiograph, all of the modem imaging techniques (CT, MRI, isotope scintigraphy, etc.) are fully discussed, and a description of the gross and microscopic pathology, along- with the choice of treatment currently advocated, completes each chapter of the specific tumors. This concise, compact volume will be of great value to those radiologists, surgeons and pathologists who may be confronted with tumors originating from the skeleton, and those who are involved with their management and treatment.
