CT Scan Shows Black Spot On Thorax, Pelvis. Can It Be Cancer?

black spots and breaks in pelvis cannot be attributed to cancer only.If there is any suspicion, confirmation needs to be done by Fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy from the involved region. from what you have written nothing can be made out clearly but without complete information you need not give way to fear
