Imaging of Skeletal Involvement in Hemolymphatic Disorders

This paper is aimed at describing the main malignant hematolymphoid disorders and their most frequent imaging appearance. Hematological malignancies are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms, including leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma that may involve the bone marrow as a primary or metastatic disease. Imaging has a pivotal role in the assessment of bone involvement, staging, and evaluation of treatment response and detection of complications.
Radiologist should be aware of most frequent findings of hematological malignant diseases, in order to perform an earlier diagnosis as well as assess an adequate clinical-therapeutic pathway.
