Development and validation of a PCCT scanning protocol to manage kidney and prostate cancer patients with vertebral metastases. (PCCTMETASPINE)

Late stage kidney and prostate cancers are associated with bone metastases, which usually occur in the spine. These lesions may increase the risk of fracture in these patients but it is unclear when there is a need of intervening due to the complexity of the structure of the metastatic vertebrae. Read more
