Predictive role of diffusion ‐weighted whole‐body MRI (DW‐MRI) imaging response according to MY‐RADS criteria after autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma and combined evaluation with MRD assessment by flow cytometry

ConclusionThe present study supports the applicability of MY-RADS recommendations after ASCT; RAC criteria were able to independently stratify patients and to better predict their prognosis and the combined use of DW-MRI with MFC allowed a more precise evaluation of MRD.
