====== Bone tumor ====== A bone [[tumor]], is a neoplastic growth of tissue in bone. Abnormal growths found in the bone can be either benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous). see [[Skull tumor]]. see [[Primary bone tumors of the spine]]. ---- There has been significant growth in osseous ablation between 2015 and 2018, with the growth dominated by Radiologists, although the overall growth rate and the market share of radiology are declining as the growth is outstripped by neurosurgery and orthopedics. Further consideration of these trends will be important for interventional radiologists to assure their involvement and expertise in ablation procedures ((Choi S, Carlon T, Lee JY, Ranade M. Practice patterns in the [[United States]] for [[ablation]] of osseous tumors using [[Medicare]] claims analysis. Clin Imaging. 2021 Dec 13;83:172-176. doi: 10.1016/j.clinimag.2021.11.032.
