探讨了计算机断层扫描（CT）在躯体软组织脂肪性肿瘤诊断中的作用。本文对6例经手术证实的脂肪性肿瘤进行术前CT和标准x线摄影手段（常规x线摄影、x光摄影和血管摄影）的研究。我们的病例材料包括一个单纯性脂肪瘤，两个浸润性脂肪瘤，一个血管脂肪瘤和两个脂肪肉瘤。根据不同的影像学方式评估影像学与病理的相关性。脂肪性肿瘤独特的组织特征使其特别适合CT扫描。除了能够准确定义组织密度外，CT在轴向平面上描绘病变深度、大小和范围的能力在术前评估本病例金属方面是最有用的。
The role of computed tomography (CT) in the evaluation of fatty tumors of the somatic soft tissues was investigated. Six surgically proven cases of fatty tumors were studied preoperatively by CT and standard radiographic means — conventional radiographs, xeroradiography, and angiography. Our case material included a simple lipoma, two infiltrative lipomas, an angiolipoma, and two liposarcomas. The radiologic-pathologic correlation was evaluated with respect to the various imaging modalities. The unique tissue characteristics of fatty tumors makes them particularly adaptable to CT scanning. In addition to its ability to define accurately tissue densities, the facility of CT in depicting depth, size, and extent of the lesion in the axial plane was found to be most useful in the preoperative evaluation of our case metarial.
