Quantitative contrast-enhanced CT attenuation evaluation of osseous metastases following chemotherapy
Chang, Connie Y.; Simeone, Frank J; Torriani, Martin P.; Bredella, Miriam A. (Springer Nature, 2017)Purpose: Osseous metastases often undergo an osteoblastic response following chemotherapy also known as the “flare” phenomenon. The purpose of our study was to demonstrate the quantitative CT changes in density of osseous ...
