Introduction to Brain TumorsFrom the late 19th century until today, neuroimaging underwent an amazing development. The imaging modalities of the CNS available to a physician today are many and can provide a considerable amount of information about its anatomy, physiology, and function. Recent advances in computational power an

Interventional Radiology in Oncologyd development of medical devices led to a breakthrough of interventional radiology to potentially curative procedures. Transarterial chemoembolization and thermal tumor ablation are listed among the curative options for certain cancer patients, hence they occupy the major part of this chapter.

Positron Emission Tomography in Bone and Soft Tissue Tumorsween viable tumor and necrosis is the most important advantage of.F-FDG PET/CT for the detection of local recurrence, but distant recurrence may be depicted as well. As for the monitoring of therapy, .F-FDG PET/CT seems to be an important tool to evaluate treatment efficacy primarily in GIST.

Imaging Principles in Pediatric Oncologyoncology imaging. Initial diagnostic imaging strongly depends on ultrasound and less on plain film findings, with the exception of bone tumors. Staging and tumor surveillance is performed with more advanced imaging modalities, such as MRI, less often with CT, and nuclear studies.
