- W121604966 abstract "The significance of medical imaging in multiple myeloma was established in 1975 with the classic description of the Durie–Salmon staging system which incorporated the presence and number of focal osteolytic lesions in the staging scheme. A third of a century later, this staging system remains in use, though augmented by advances in medical imaging. By the early 1980s, CT imaging demonstrated more focal bone lesions than were seen with standard radiographs as well as extramedullary disease. By the 1980s, MRI imaging revealed skeletal disease that was not apparent by either standard x-rays or CT, focal plasmacytomas in bone that had not yet produced focal osteolysis, and diffuse marrow infiltration. Subsequent work throughout the 1990s developed and established MRI as a very powerful tool to demonstrate the full extent of skeletal disease with resolution approaching a few millimeters. MRI was also used to direct biopsies of focal lesions which increased the detection rate of clinically relevant information compared to random marrow biopsies. However, standard MRI lacked the wide field of view of CT and was both considerably more expensive and less widely available than CT. An additional weakness of standard x-rays, CT, and MRI was their limited utility in the demonstration of response to treatment. By the mid- to late 1990s, the utility of 18F-FDG PET and (after 2000) PET/CT was apparent. PET/CT was particularly powerful since it provided a “whole-body” examination combining the utility of CT (“anatomy”) with a “metabolic” image that was linked to the Warburg physiology of tumors, at a fraction of the cost of an extensive MRI. Thus, PET and PET/CT can demonstrate both active disease and, very importantly, response to treatment. The PET image fused to the CT portion of the PET/CT also provides a “free” whole-body metastatic bone survey that can reveal not only focal bone lesions but also additional clinically relevant findings (fractures or impending fractures, additional malignancies, occult infections, unsuspected regions of tumor involvement such as extramedullary tumor). Recent work has established the fundamental importance of 18F-FDG PET and PET/CT for the baseline evaluation of patients with multiple myeloma and related plasma cell dyscrasias, as well as for subsequent evaluations related to patient management. Future directions for imaging research in multiple myeloma will include PET imaging with isotopes other than 18F-FDG and whole-body MRI." @default.
