Abstract
Whole-body MRI with an added diffusion-weighted sequence is an efficacious method of detecting osseous metastases and is more reliable than bone scintigraphy. Moreover, whole-body MRI provides information about extraosseous lesions. Lytic metastases are hyperintense in diffusion-weighted sequences and have a lower ADC than benign edema.
