[First clinical experience with axial emission computer tomography (author's transl)]. 1977

U Feine, and K Anger, and W Müller-Schauenburg, and R C Milward

104 examinations were carried out on 81 patients with a new commercial emission computer tomographic scanner. The technique provides additional information in half the brain scans, but only in one third of liver scans. No indications for this examination could be discovered in a relatively small clinical material for the examination of the kidneys or the skeleton. Other organs were not included in this assessment. The authors confirm reports in the literature which show that this method is not particularly valuable for finding pathology. It finds its application in conforming or excluding suspected abnormalities and for better localisation and delineation of lesions, thereby aiding differential diagnosis. However, further technical improvements and increased clinical experiency may increase the applicability of the technique.

D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.
