[Osteoid osteoma of the spine].
High resolution CT has become crucial to the definite diagnosis, accurate localisation and extension of benign spinal tumors. An osteoid osteoma mostly suspected by X-ray or scintigraphy, located in the axial skeleton--mainly of spongious content and with a complex anatomical structure--will be definitely more distinctly visualized on CT. Post-operative evaluation also requires CT.
