Overview

Multiple myeloma is a blood cancer characterized by proliferation of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow and the presence of paraprotein in the serum and/or urine. In recent years, whole-body positron emission tomography (PET) imaging combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) has become a preferred imaging technique for diagnosis and treatment. It has the benefit of detecting metabolically active characteristic focuses and good detection of extramedullary and paramedullary lesions. The following text presents the collective opinion of the representatives of the Czech Society of Nuclear Medicine ČLS JEP z.s. (CSNM ČLS JEP) and the Czech Myeloma Group (CMG) on PET/CT as well as on its evaluation and reporting. The aim is to standardize the methodology of PET/CT examination across the Czech Republic, which will be clear and simple to understand.

Keywords:

Multiple myeloma – evaluation of treatment response – complete metabolic response – extramedullary lesions – 18F-FDG PET/CT – paramedullary lesions
