Abstract
Soft tissue sarcomas are rare malignant neoplasms accounting for only 1% of malignant tumors in adults. Complete surgical resection of the tumor is key for therapeutic success. Comprehensive diagnostic imaging significantly contributes to adequate preoperative planning. With effective targeted molecular pharmacotherapies entering the clinical scenario, functional imaging strategies will have a significant effect on individual risk assessment and will contribute to optimized, noninvasive treatment response monitoring.Entities:
