Description

The calcification of tumors injuries at the T.D.M. is a good indicator of psammoma serous carcinoma. The psammoma injuries fix the 18F.D.G. at the level of their tumor part and the technetium osseous tracers at the level of their calcified part; They are easily identifiable in nuclear medicine what is useful in the measure where the psammoma serous ovarian carcinoma benefits of a prognosis relatively better than this one of serous ovarian adenocarcinoma.
