Computed tomography of chest wall masses

SZ Jafri, JL Roberts, RL Bree and HD Tabor
Department of Diagnostic Radiology, William Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak, Michigan 48072.

The authors argue that CT is superior to other imaging techniques for the examination of the bones and soft tissues of the chest wall. They also note the importance of CT in planning therapy for lesions involving these structures. In support of these theses they present computed tomograms showing 26 different types of lesion involving the chest wall ranging from sternal fracture to malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Malignant neoplasms involving the chest wall by metastasis or direct extension from the breast, lung or mediastinum are emphasized.
