The value of computed tomography in the radiotherapeutic management of juxtasellar tumors
Source: Comput Tomogr 1977;1(1):111-120.
Author: Lee KF;Suh JH;Mazziotta JC;Huang HK
PubMed ID: 612396
Abstract:
Computerized tomography has proven to be extremely useful for accurate tumor localization and precise assessment of tumor extent in the juxtasellar region. A reconstruction and display system with ACTA scanner provides three-dimensional images from the serial two-dimensional sections. With this method, one can determine the volume and actual contour of the tumor. Using the ACTA scanner, both transaxial and coronal sections of the tumor can be precisely portrayed with accurate dimensions. With the aid of CT treatment planning, we have been successfully treating such radiocurable tumors as pituitary adenomas, germinomas, craniopharyngiomas and optic gliomas.
