[Experience with low-field magnetic resonance tomography for the diagnosis of bone marrow lesions].
Metastatic lesions of the bone marrow (BM) in cancer patients are instrumental in making prognosis and selecting optimal treatment modality. Recent evidence has pointed to insufficient sensitivity of morphological, X-ray and osteoscintigraphic diagnostic procedures to deal with focal alterations in BM. Vistas in application of low-field magnetic resonance tomography for detection and differential diagnosis of localized lesions in BM are discussed.
