Abstract

Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of metastatic bone cancer, where cancer cells spread from primary tumors to the skeletal system. This article reviews various imaging modalities, including X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), bone scintigraphy, and positron emission tomography (PET). Each technique offers unique advantages in detecting and characterizing bone metastases, guiding treatment decisions, and monitoring disease progression. Early and accurate imaging is essential for optimizing patient outcomes, as it enables timely interventions and improves the overall management of metastatic bone disease.
