    Computer tomography (CT) effectively visualizes spinal tumors, especially vascular or those with extreme density. Invasive CT myelography offers superior detection of small intraspinal lesions.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Oncology
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Spinal tumors present diagnostic challenges.
    • Accurate tumor localization is crucial for effective treatment planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of computer tomography (CT) in diagnosing spinal tumors.
    • To compare non-invasive and invasive CT techniques for spinal tumor detection.

    Main Methods:

    • Computer tomography (CT) was performed on 32 patients with 34 spinal tumors.
    • Both non-invasive CT and invasive CT myelography (primary and secondary) were utilized.
    • Intravenous or intrathecal contrast administration was employed in some cases.

    Main Results:

    • Non-invasive CT effectively identified tumors with very low/high density or high vascularity within the vertebral canal.

  • CT demonstrated superior results in the cervical region and for paravertebral tumors, including those in the chest.
  • Invasive CT myelography successfully detected small intraspinal space-occupying lesions.
  • Neoplastic processes of the axial skeleton were also visualized.

    • Conclusions:

    • CT is a valuable tool for diagnosing spinal tumors, with non-invasive methods showing limitations based on tumor density and vascularity.
    • Invasive CT myelography provides essential information for detecting small intraspinal lesions, serving as an alternative to conventional myelography.
    • CT offers significant diagnostic capabilities for spinal and paravertebral tumors.
