[Results of computer tomographic and lymphographic diagnosis of malignant testicular tumors].
89.5% accuracy was achieved using the pre-therapeutic combination of CT scanning and lymphography to diagnose the spread of malign testicular tumours in 28 cases. In 14% of the patients CT scanning was able to increase the diagnostic information. CT scanning should follow lymphography. The use of CT scanning to check on progress proved useful in 42 cases, both after lymphonodectomy and after irradiation therapy. In 7 cases (17%) the CT examination revealed metastasis.
