A complex of methods of radiation diagnostics in a patient with multiple myeloma (clinical case)
The article presents the possibilities of the complex application of methods of radiation diagnostics: bone x-ray, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, computed tomography, positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography using fluorodeoxyglucose labeled with 18-fluorine (PET/CT with 18F-FDG) in a patient with multiple myeloma, which was treated in the amount of high-dose therapy with autologous transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells. The diagnosis was established immunohistochemically. The use of these methods allowed us to dynamically assess the pathological changes characteristic of multiple myeloma.
