OBJECTIVE. We examine the clinical impetus for whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI and
discuss how to implement the technique with clinical MRI systems. We include practical tips …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to review current image acquisition and
interpretation for whole-body MRI, clinical applications, and the emerging roles in oncologic …

Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WB-MRI) is currently used worldwide for
detecting bone metastases from prostate cancer. The 5-year survival rate for prostate cancer …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of whole-body diffusion-
weighted MRI (DWI) and 18F-NaF PET/CT for detection of bone metastases in patients with …

We prospectively evaluated and compared the diagnostic performance of 99mTc-
hydroxyethylene-diphosphonate (99mTc-HDP) planar bone scintigraphy (pBS), 99mTc-HDP …

Over the past decade, updated definitions for the different stages of prostate cancer and risk
for distant disease, along with the advent of new therapies, have remarkably changed the …

Objectives To examine the diagnostic accuracy of imaging modalities in skeletal tumours
versus pathology reports. Materials and methods Pathology reports of bone biopsies were …

MRI is a very attractive approach for tumour detection and oncological staging with its
absence of ionizing radiation, high soft tissue contrast and spatial resolution. Less than 10 …

Purpose We performed a meta-analysis to investigate and compare diagnostic performance
of whole-body MRI and skeletal scintigraphy for detection of bone metastatic tumors …

Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the results of whole-body diffusion-weighted
magnetic resonance (DW-MR) imaging with staging based on computed tomography (CT) …
