The use of MRI for the imaging of metastatic bone lesions
Q J Nucl Med Mol Imaging. 2023 Dec;67(4):271-279. doi: 10.23736/S1824-4785.23.03538-0.ABSTRACTSkeletal metastatic disease accounts for significant overall morbidity in cancer patients. Accurate and accessible imaging forms an integral part of the investigation for patients with suspected or known skeletal metastatic disease; it is considered indispensable in making appropriate oncological treatment decisions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a contemporary imaging modality that provides excellent spatial and contrast resolution for bone and soft tissues. Therefore, it is particularly useful for imaging patients sufferin...
