Imaging Concensus Statement - 2009

Have you guys read this? I found it very interesting. I somewhere had it in my head that PET scans were at the top of the list of reliable imaging in MGUS/MM - but from what I read it's really not....and neither is a basic x-ray which 2 oncs have told me!

BTW - have you downloaded their free software Myeloma Manager?! Very cool software to track your labs with. It will even produce a graph based on you input!!
