Does computerized tomography (CT) improve the assessment of lesion extent compared to angiography in patients with intramuscular haemangiomas of the extremities?
CT is a highly valuable tool for pre-operative planning in patients with intramuscular haemangiomas of the extremities, offering more accurate assessment of lesion extent than angiography.
Christenson et al. (1985) studied this question.
