Abstract
We evaluated sequential thallium scans, made before and after a period of preoperative chemotherapy, for sixteen patients who had a high-grade sarcoma of bone or soft tissue. The purpose was to determine whether this technique could be used to ascertain accurately the amount of viable tumorThis publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
