Paediatric bone lesions: diagnostic accuracy of imaging correlation and CT-guided needle biopsy for differentiating benign from malignant lesions.
CONCLUSION: CT-NB represents a safe and very effective tool for differentiating benign and malignant lesions in children presenting with a suspected primary bone tumour. Suspected radiological diagnosis plays a pivotal role in the management of indeterminate biopsy results.
ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Paediatric bone tumours pose a significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The interpretation of the imaging findings is essential for the successful management of indeterminate histological results.
