Whole‐body magnetic resonance imaging (WB‐MRI) as surveillance for subsequent malignancies in survivors of hereditary retinoblastoma: A pilot study

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Individuals with hereditary retinoblastoma (RB) are at very high risk of developing subsequent malignant neoplasms (SMNs) of which osteosarcoma (OS) is one of the most common. We hypothesized that annual surveillance using whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WB-MRI) in asymptomatic survivors of hereditary RB would detect SMN of the bone and soft tissues at an early stage. PROCEDURE: Retrospective...
