Imaging in primary melanoma is usually only appropriate in the context of clinical trials or if there is other evidence of metastatic disease. Definitive histology is of paramount importance with particular attention to Breslow microscopic thickness, Clark level of invasion and whether any regression is...
The stage is based on the results of physical exams, biopsies, and imaging tests (ultrasound, CT or MRI scan) or other tests that have been done. Melanoma stage is very important in planning the treatment and estimating the patient's prognosis.年份: 2017 ...
AimsTo retrospectively evaluate the use of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the initial staging of patients with cutaneous melanoma in our melanoma unit.Materials and methodsThe radiology request forms for brain MRI for melanoma staging for 193 consecutive patients were reviewed. Patient hospit...
76 In patients with a low risk for distant metastases, if imaging is requested at all, chest X-ray and US of the liver and the regional lymph nodes may be used. If the melanoma is located on the lower extremities or lower body, MRI may be warranted to evaluate for pelvic ...

These studies are limited by their small numbers and their inability to determine the sensitivity of the technique. However, in contrast to breast cancer and melanoma, for which SLNB is now standard of care, surgical management of involved nodes is not standard in anal cancer, and the ...
Our search was not limited by a date range. We conducted additional searches for “PET/CT” and the following tumors: “ocular lymphoma”, “orbital lymphoma”, “uveal melanoma”, “choroidal melanoma”, “conjunctival melanoma”, “cutaneous eyelid melanoma”, “sebaceous carcinoma”, “squamous...
With its ability to determine the metabolic activity of tissues 18F-Fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET/CT) is a powerful staging method for oncological patients and is often used in different tumour types with known high FDG avidity, such as lymphoma, melanoma, oesophageal ...
