Area of Science:

  • Radiology and Medical Imaging
  • Diagnostic Medicine

Context:

  • Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) encompasses diverse techniques for disease detection.
  • Whole-body magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) visualizes the arterial system, excluding coronary arteries.

Purpose:

  • To review recent advancements and established indications of whole-body MRI.
  • To explore the potential of whole-body MRI in revolutionizing disease diagnosis.

Summary:

  • Whole-body MRI can detect bone marrow metastases using fluid-sensitive sequences, potentially replacing skeletal scintigraphy.
  • Fast contrast-enhanced sequences aid in tumor detection.
  • Whole-body MRA is used for therapy planning in patients with multiple stenoses and may serve as a future screening tool for high-risk populations.
