Abstract
Conventional radiography continues to be the most important imaging modality in the initial diagnosis and assessment of skeletal neoplasms. However, this technique is usually inadequate to determine the local extent of the tumor, particularly in malignancies. Angiography also fails to define accurately the local extent of most skeletal neoplasms. Computed tomography, however, demonstrates the intramedullary and extraosseous extent of skeletal neoplasms much more accurately and is currently the modality most frequently used for this purpose.
