The size and location of these masses can be accurately assessed today with appropriate imaging studies. The radiologist, however, must pay attention to detail and carefully evaluate the margins of the lesion and note its precise size because this information determines the operation and operative approach used. In addition, by carefully analyzing the imaging characteristics, a fairly accurate preoperative diagnosis can be given that will allow treatment planning to precede until final pathologic confirmation is available.
如今，通过适当的影像学检查能够准确评估这些肿块的大小和位置。然而，放射科医生必须注重细节，仔细评估病变的边缘并记录其确切大小，因为这些信息决定了所采用的手术及手术方式。此外，通过仔细分析影像学特征，可以给出相当准确的术前诊断，从而在获得最终病理确诊之前就能够进行治疗规划。
