Chest Wall Tumors
Diagnosis of Chest Wall Tumors
Imaging Biopsy Sometimes a chest wall tumor is detected when chest imaging is done for some other reason. People with chest wall tumors require Chest Imaging , such as chest x-ray, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and sometimes positron emission tomography (PET)–CT to determine the original site and extent of the tumor and whether it has developed in the chest wall tumor or is a metastasis from a tumor elsewhere in the body. A biopsy may be done to confirm the diagnosis.
