Diagnosis and therapeutic evaluation of tumors in the abdominal and thoracic walls by use of histogrammatic analysis and color differentiation of their XCT data

Diagnosis of localization, invasions histopathological discrimination and therapeutic evaluation of tumors in the abdominal and thoracic walls can be expedited by use of histogrammatic analysis and color differentiation of the digital data in the regions of interest. Such merits were studied in patients and demonstration of appropriate clinical cases were exhibited. By use of computers and appropriate color display programs, the principles described herein would certainly be facilitated. (author)
