[Benign disorders of soft tissue on the roentgen computer tomogram].

Diagnostic procedures of soft tissue lesions have considerably improved by the high density resolution of computed tomography. Indications for investigations by CT are described in detail and illustrated by examples. Enhancement by contrast medium enables further differentiation of the tumors. In most cases for cancer control the scar tissue can be differentiated from relapse. Comparison of both sides reveals isodense tumors. Limits of the CT method will be met in looking for discreet changes in the joints.
