The Role of Bone Marrow Aspiration and Bone Marrow Biopsy in Diagnosis of Bone Marrow Metastases
Background: Bone marrow is the site of many malignant disorders and it is one of the common places for solid tumors to metastasize. Examination of the bone marrow aspirate and biopsy is a routine procedure performed for assessment of various conditions such as cytopenias, hematologic neoplasms, nonmalignant disorders and metastatic neoplasms. Methods: The patients were referred to the Hema...
متن کاملBone Marrow Adipose Tissue: A New Player in Cancer Metastasis to Bone
The bone marrow is a favored site for a number of cancers, including the hematological malignancy multiple myeloma, and metastasis of breast and prostate cancer. This specialized microenvironment is highly supportive, not only for tumor growth and survival but also for the development of an associated destructive cancer-induced bone disease. The interactions between tumor cells, osteoclasts and...
متن کاملHuman bone marrow-derived MSCs can home to orthotopic breast cancer tumors and promote bone metastasis.
American women have a nearly 25% lifetime risk of developing breast cancer, with 20% to 40% of these patients developing life-threatening metastases. More than 70% of patients presenting with metastases have skeletal involvement, which signals progression to an incurable stage.

متن کاملBone Marrow Imaging
(1) Background Bone marrow is the body’s 4 largest organ constituting 5% of its body weight. It consists of trabecular bone and a variety of cells including hematopoetic, fat, stroma and RES cells as well as sinsusoids. Bone marrow composition changes with age, which is reflected in a change in signal characteristics in MR images. Red marrow, which is found in younger individuals is composed of...
متن کاملBone marrow reconversion – imaging of physiological changes in bone marrow
Reconversion of bone marrow is a reverse process of natural replacement of red marrow by yellow marrow. The occurrence of reconversion can be misleading and challenging in interpretation of musculoskeletal system imaging. Changes of signal intensity in bone marrow are frequently observed in radiological routine and its diversity can cause a suspicion of pathologic findings. Therefore, the knowl...
