Article Synopsis
- MRI is effective at identifying bone marrow involvement in multiple myeloma but struggles with detecting bone lesions, prompting a study to test new MRI techniques (ZTE and BB) against whole-body CT as a reference.
- The study included 47 patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma or at high risk, assessing the performance of ZTE and BB MRI sequences alongside PET/CT scans for detecting osteolytic lesions.
- Results showed that experienced radiologists achieved high accuracy (98%) with both MRI techniques, but there were noticeable discrepancies in detection rates across different regions, particularly with an increased false-negative rate in the spine when using ZTE.
Mucosal leishmaniosis (ML) is a rare manifestation of leishmaniosis, usually caused by in northeast Brazil and by and in the Mediterranean Europe and Africa. We present the case of a 66-year-old man living between Belgium and Congo, presenting with dysphonia for several months. Imaging work-up with PET-CE, CT scan, and MRI of the tongue, larynx, and esophagus reflected inflammatory and granulomatous tissue, confirmed at the biopsy.
