Overview
A chest x-ray is a prerequisite in the diagnosis of cancer of unknown primary; however, it's value is of less significance when it comes to locating the primary tumor or differentiating it from a metastatic lesion.
X-ray
- A chest x-ray is a prerequisite in the diagnosis of cancer of unknown primary; however, it's value is of less significance when it comes to locating the primary tumor or differentiating it from a metastatic lesion.[1]
- A mammography may be helpful in the identification of the primary origin of the tumor in women presenting with metastatic adenocarcinoma.[2]
