sahilstanlean Total Posts: 24 | Posted: Thu Dec 17, 2009 03:17 am well in the books % is given exactly as 94%..and generally calcification is not visible on USG..(though i am not sure about the later one) |
madanpopuri Total Posts: 1 | Posted: Tue Dec 22, 2009 04:27 pm is the answer.answer is bitween b n c.bcz usg is useful in r.b.for detection of calcification,answer is most probably b |
ishan Total Posts: 3 | Posted: Tue Dec 22, 2009 05:18 pm i believe d answer is A only.........50-70% cases r sporadic(in 99% studies) wd 70 being d higher limit.... at d same time though calcification is best seen on imaging studies lyk ct/mri....a usg will show incresed thickness which wll correlate well wid calcificatipn of d tumour.... |
