Providing a comprehensive coverage of bone tumours and nonneoplastic conditions which may mimic tumours, this visual resource addresses general considerations such as: the normal bone; the incidence of bone tumours; classification and staging tumours; and the special techniques used to detect them. In 20 chapters, specific types of bone tumours and tumour-like conditions are discussed in detail. Each chapter is organized into various areas, including incidence, pathogenesis, clinical, radiographic and microscopic findings, special pathology techniques, and differential diagnosis.

This book aims to provide readers with a sound understanding of the spectrum of radiologic appearances of bone tumors, which reflect histopathology, and the pattern analysis of imaging findings.The first part of the book explains basic concepts and diagnostic parameters, including demographics, lesion location, biological activity, matrix mineralization, and endosteal and periosteal reactions. In the second part, typical and atypical radiologic features of bone tumors are reviewed in detail, with emphasis on the characteristic radiographic and MR imaging findings and reference to schematic drawings and pathologic or operative images when appropriate.The third part focuses on problem solving in cases encountered in real radiology practice and identifies categorical patterns on the basis of radiographic and MR variables and lesion location. Informative cases are illustrated and compared to enhance understanding of differential diagnosis using pattern analysis. The final part of the book helps readers to consolidate what they have learned and to hone their diagnostic reasoning skills by presenting about 30 typical bone tumor cases with questions, answers, and commentary.

Detection and characterization of bone tumors with imaging remains a big challenge for every radiologist notwithstanding the impressive progress achieved by the introduction of several new imaging modalities. Moreover, new concepts in surgical and oncological treatment of these lesions require from the radiologist appropriate and focused answers to the specifc questions asked by the referring physicians in order to choose the best therapeutic approach for the in- vidual patient. Tis comprehensive textbook describes in detail the possibilities and limits of all moda- ties, including MRI, CT, nuclear medicine and interventional radiological procedures, employed for the modern imaging of tumoral and tumor-like lesions of bone. Teir role in the diagnosis, surgical staging, biopsy and assessment of response to therapy is discussed in detail, covering all tumor subtypes as well as their specifc anatomical location.Well selected and technically imp- cable illustrations strongly enhance the didactic value of this work. I am very much indebted and grateful to the three editors: A. Mark Davies, Murali Sundaram and Steven L. J. James, world authorities in musculoskeletal radiology, for their superb scientifc achievement in preparing and editing this wonderful volume as well as for their individual ch- ters. I would also like to thank the large international group of collaborating authors, who are also widely acknowledged for their specifc expertise in the area of bone tumors, for their outstanding contributions.

This book reviews the latest techniques for diagnostics and treatments specific to bone and soft tissue tumors. It focuses on imaging and classification of the bone and soft tissue tumors and how histology and cytogenetic aspects can be used to identify tumors. Each chapter focuses on a specific type of tumor, providing a concise overview of relevant information on their characteristics along with the latest surgical and medical treatments available. Bone Tumors: Diagnosis and Therapy Today is a concise guide to successfully identifying and treating bone and soft tissue tumors, making it a valuable resource for practicing medical professionals and trainees who encounter these patients in their day-to-day practice.

This book is the second in a two-volume set that offers comprehensive guidance on the diagnosis of bone tumors based on a modification of the WHO classification as well as management and follow-up. The emphasis throughout is on an integrated approach to diagnosis that highlights the role of clinical, radiologic, and pathologic correlation in reducing the possibility of diagnostic error. The diagnosis of bone tumors is difficult for a variety of reasons, including the numerous types of the tumors with variable subtypes, the protean radiologic manifestations and the variable pathologic findings case by case and even depending on the phase in each case, the presence of reactive changes to the tumor lesion, and overlapping findings between benign and malignant tumors. In addition, it is often more difficult by surgeon’s inadequate biopsy. The author’s aim is to offer the readers the best possible guidance in negotiating these difficulties. For each tumor types, a wide range of cases are presented, from the common to the very rare. Appearances on the full range of imaging studies are illustrated, including conventional radiographs, bone scans, CT scan, MRI, and even PET/CT scans in malignant cases. Attention is also drawn to the role of long-term follow-up radiographs in ensuring correct diagnosis and management. This book will be an ideal resource for all practitioners and researchers who involved in bone tumor diagnosis and also management. Volume 2 covers osteoclastic giant cell-rich tumors, hematopoietic tumors, notochordal tumors, cysts and cyst-like lesions, vascular and neurogenic tumors, and tumors of other mesenchymal cells.

Cytopathology of Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors provides the practicing pathologist with a single reference for describing and illustrating the cytologic features of musculoskeletal tumors. Using fine-needle aspiration (FNA), the approach of this work is encyclopedic: both relatively common and relatively rare lesions are depicted. It is expected that Cytopathology of Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors will serve to widen the usage of the FNA technique which can: substantially decrease patient morbidity; lessen the complications that arise due to other biopsy techniques; and shorten the time as well as expense required for diagnosis. The chapters on soft tissue lesions are organized by direction of differentiation. Each chapter documents both the common and uncommon lesions within the tissue group. Summaries of clinical findings are given along with the histopathologic and cytologic description. Key diagnostic points (in tabular form) and a discussion of the differential diagnosis complete each section. The section on skeletal lesions is organized along predominant cell type seen in smears. This approach facilitates grouping of lesions into diagnostically useful categories, allowing the pathologist faced with an unfamiliar lesion to rapidly access the portion of the text most useful for differential diagnosis. Within each chapter, the organization is similar to that within the soft tissue chapters. The introduction discusses technical concerns, limitations of the technique, and a diagnostic approach in both tabular and narrative form. Information on grading of soft tissue sarcomas completes the introduction.
