It has been proven, that CT Body Perfusion, which has proven to be one of the method to use for the impact of the therapy in time, can monitor hypervascular tumors like osteosarcoma. Observation is useful especially with the tumors growing in the soft tissues around the bone. CT Body Perfusion shows the started new direction in monitoring of effect of oncology treatment. Resulting perfusion maps can be evaluated qualitatively or even more precise quantitatively.
