Abstract
To the best of our knowledge, ours is the first report to analyze the bone density and stability in patients with multiple myeloma after RT using a validated scoring system and computed tomography imaging. Palliative RT is an effective method resulting in a significant increase in bone density for local response and stability without severe RT-related toxicity. Furthermore, recalcification could already be detected at 3 months after treatment.
