In daily radiological practice, one often encounters problems in differentiating real bone tumors from tumoral bone lesions. Bone reacts in limited ways for any stimulus of developmental or acquired nature. These pathological reactions are reflected in radiology and imaging investigations. These include new or reactive bone which is dense, lysis of the bone are non-mineralized matrix which is lucent and periosteal reaction in several patterns. It may be a combination of these lesions.
