Abstract

The volumes of two neuroblastomas and two Wilms' tumor masses were calculated by computerized tomography (CT) within 48 hours of surgical removal of the tumor. True volumes of the tumor masses were obtained by volume displacement. CT was very accurate in predicting volume with an error ranging from 1.5% to 7.5%. This accurate method of evaluating tumor volume will allow precise monitoring of the response of nonoperable tumors to chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

摘要

在手术切除肿瘤后的48小时内，通过计算机断层扫描（CT）计算了两个神经母细胞瘤和两个肾母细胞瘤肿块的体积。肿瘤肿块的实际体积通过体积置换法获得。CT在预测体积方面非常准确，误差范围为1.5%至7.5%。这种评估肿瘤体积的准确方法将能够精确监测不可手术肿瘤对化疗和放疗的反应。
