Abstract

Preoperative isotope bone scans have a low sensitivity for metastases. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful for the detection of bone disease in haematological malignancy' and to differentiate between causes of vertebral compression fracture in advanced breast cancer2. The sensitivity of MRI and scintigraphy was compared in the investigation of bone pain developing in patients during follow-up after cancer surgery. MRI was also assessed as a preoperative staging procedur
