FIG 2. Patient with diffuse bone metastases from prostate cancer, with hypointensity on all sequences.
A, Midsagittal T1-weighted image shows diffuse and mostly hypointense signal intensity in lower lumbar and sacral vertebrae.
B, Corresponding T2-weighted image shows that the vertebrae are diffusely hypointense.
C, Corresponding diffusion-weighted image shows that the vertebrae involved by metastases are hypointense. This hypointensity on all sequences could be related to sclerosis seen on radiographs of this region. The abnormality is more difficult to perceive on diffusion-weighted image than on T1-weighted image.
