"The bone marrow burden score (BMB-score) is a semi-quantitative MRI scoring system for assessing the extent of bone marrow involvement in Gaucher disease 1. It was presented as an alternative to quantitative chemical shift imaging (QCSI) or fat fraction measurement, which is not available on every machine."
"The BMB-score is scored on sagittal T1 and T2 images of the lumbar spine and coronal T1 and T2 images of the femurs. A higher total BMB-score indicates more severe bone marrow involvement."
