Histographic studies in computed tomography of contrast-enhanced cerebral and orbital tumors.
The density distribution inside a pathologic zone before and after contrast enhancement has been studied in the computed tomograms of 88 cases of cerebral and orbital tumors, using histographic analysis. The histograms provided additional diagnostic information, especially for vascular tumors. This method is also useful for experimentation with contrast media.
