title: [The role of diagnostic imaging in sarcoma].
abstract: A radiologist should be included in the multidisciplinary approach which will allow optimal diagnostic evaluation and treatment of sarcoma. The appropriate use of ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging plays a significant role in the evaluation of these tumors and their recurrences. The potential role of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging has also been evaluated. A review of diagnostic imaging and their clinical utility is discussed.
