    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Neuroradiology

    Background:

    • Accurate localization of lesions in computerized tomography (CT) scans is often hindered by a lack of reliable anatomical landmarks.
    • Variations in patient head angulation during scanning further complicate precise lesion identification and spatial referencing.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and describe a simple and accurate system for transposing lesion locations from CT scans to conventional roentgenograms.
    • To enhance the anatomical referencing of detected lesions for improved clinical interpretation and surgical planning.

    Main Methods:

    • A novel system for lesion localization is detailed, focusing on transposing coordinates from CT images.
    • The method involves correlating points between the CT scan and a roentgenogram taken with the scanner tube in place.
