Computed tomography in suspected osteoid osteomas of tubular bones
Journal Article
·
· Skelet. Radiol.; (United States)
Six cases of suspected osteoid osteoma of tubular bones were evaluated by computed tomography (CT). In all cases a radiolucent nidus was clearly demonstrated. In two cases a radiodense center of the nidus was visualized. It is suggested that CT may replace conventional tomography in the evaluation of these lesions. Due to its ability to locate the lesion in the transverse plane, CT is superior for the exact planning of surgery to avoid unnecessary large or misdirected resections. Adequate window settings are essential in the evaluation of these lesions.
