Relevance of diffusion-weighted imaging with background body signal suppression for staging, prognosis, morphology, treatment response, and apparent diffusion coefficient in plasma-cell neoplasms: A single-center, retrospective study.

Accurate staging and evaluation of therapeutic effects are important in managing plasma-cell neoplasms. Diffusion-weighted imaging with body signal suppression magnetic resonance imaging (DWIBS-MRI) allows for acquisition of whole-body volumetric data without radiation exposure. This study aimed to...
