Do CT Scans show soft tissue damage?

Yes, CT scans can show soft tissue damage, as they provide detailed images of various body structures, including muscles, fat, and organs. They are particularly useful for identifying abnormalities such as tears, swelling, or hematomas in soft tissues. However, while CT scans are effective for visualizing soft tissue, MRI scans may provide even more detailed images of soft tissue injuries.

What is the difference between CT and MRI images from a physician's point of view for example the appearance of different tissues?

CT suited for detecting cancers, viewing bone injuries, diagnosing lung and chest problems.MRI is suited for examining brain tumors, spinal cord injuries, soft tissue in ligament and tendon injuries,-CT Provides good details about bony structures. MRI Less detailed compared to X-ray-CT Good soft tissue differentiation especially with intravenous contrast. Higher imaging resolution. MRI is better at telling the difference between different soft tissues and between normal and abnormal soft tissue-CT scan is faster than MRI.-effective radiation dose from CT ranges from 2 to 10 mSv. No Radiation for MRI-CT can pose the risk of irradiation. Not the case of MRI

Can you see soft tissue in a xray?

Soft tissues like muscles, tendons, and ligaments are not typically visible on a standard X-ray because they do not absorb enough X-ray beams to create a contrast with the surrounding tissues. X-rays are primarily used to visualize bones and can show the outline of soft tissue but not details within them. Specialized techniques like MRI or ultrasound are better suited for imaging soft tissues.

Are mesenteric and omental soft tissue nodules consistent with soft tissue sarcoma?

Mesenteric and omental soft tissue nodules could have a number of causes, usually metastatic cancer. In a patient with a known soft tissue sarcoma elsewhere in the body, this finding would likely represent metastases from this sarcoma. If the patient did not have a history of soft tissue sarcoma, this finding could be several things, and soft tissue sarcome would not be at the top of my list.
