title: Specimen radiography of bone tumours.
abstract: Radiographs obtained with a transportable roentgen apparatus and a shielded cabinet on fine grain films of whole specimens and/or slabs of transsected bone in primary bone tumours and soft tissue tumours with skeletal invasion or ossification were compared with clinical roentgenograms and related to gross and microscopic pathology as demonstrated in selected cases. Specimen radiography is found to be a valuable adjunct to standard morphologic examination and forms a link to clinical radiology in the study of bone tumours and related diseases.
