[Primary and secondary chest wall tumors--new imaging procedures].
For the diagnostic evaluation of chest wall tumours computed tomography, bone scintigraphy, sonography and magnetic resonance tomography as additional imaging methods are available. CT has the greatest clinical relevance; the most important advantage of CT is the exact topographic localization of the process and the evaluation of the soft tissue extension. A tumour specific diagnosis can only be expected on rare occasions. Bone scanning is the method of choice if destruction of the skeletal system is suspected.
