Overview
CT
- The role of CT scan in osteosarcoma is predominantly in assisting biopsy and staging, but adds little to plain radiography and MRI in direct assessment of the tumor.
- The exception to this rule is predominantly lytic lesions in which small amounts of mineralised material may be inapparent on both plain film and MRI.
