Computed tomography of localized adipose deposits presenting as tumor masses.

W N Cohen, F E Seidelmann, P J Bryan.   

Abstract

Computed tomography can reliably differentiate fat from other soft tissues. As a result of this property, adipose deposits presenting as tumors can be discriminated from neoplasms. Five examples are presented in which surgery was obviated by CT findings.
