Overview
There are no other imaging findings associated with [disease name].
OR
[Imaging modality] may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an [imaging modality] suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
Other Imaging Findings
Bone scan
- Not used routinely
- This is used if bone metastasis is suspected and in the later stages of cancer.
- Bone scans are not routine as the tumour metastasizes to bones very late. F-18 FDG PET/CT is increasingly used as a problem solving tool and to distinguish scar tissue from residual active tumour.
- There are no other imaging findings associated with [disease name].
- [Imaging modality] may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an [imaging modality] suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include:
- [Finding 1]
- [Finding 2]
