    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Orthopaedics
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Computer assisted tomography (CT) is an advanced radiographic technique providing transverse body slice representations.
    • CT imaging offers superior density resolution, proving beneficial in medical diagnostics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of CT in diagnosing and managing musculoskeletal system lesions.
    • To determine the value of CT in orthopaedic investigations and tumor localization.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review and analysis of clinical experiences.
    • Utilizing CT for detailed anatomical measurements and error-free visualization in complex regions.

    Main Results:

    • CT is highly indicated for the diagnosis and precise localization of musculoskeletal tumors.
    • The technique excels in complex anatomical areas, overcoming projection errors.

    Conclusions:

    • CT is a valuable tool for musculoskeletal tumor diagnosis and localization.
    • Further research is needed to explore CT's potential for intravital bone density examination.
