Musculoskeletal tumours are rare, with a wide variety of presentations. Three “up to date” topics are focused, two in imaging, one in management. Contrast Enhanced UltraSound is promising also as a guidance for tru-cut biopsy and magnetic resonance with functional imaging studies (DCE, DWI, MRI-spectroscopy) could help in diagnosis and treatment. Piedmont and Valle d’Aosta Oncological Network could be an organizational model for musculoskeletal tumours in an interdisciplinary organization.
