1. The key factors for diagnosing bone tumors on conventional radiography include location, age, margins, periosteal reaction, transition zone, number of lesions, size, and soft tissue compromise.
2. Certain features like geographic lesions, periosteal reactions, mineralization patterns, and cortical changes provide clues about a tumor's aggressiveness and likelihood of being benign or malignant.
3. Integrating location, age, and other radiographic characteristics can lead to a short differential diagnosis or even a definitive diagnosis for many bone tumors on conventional radiographs alone.
