"T1: mildly low signal intensity"
"STIR: high signal intensity"
"T1 C+ (Gd): non-enhancing bone marrow"
"Dixon sequences are useful in aiding diagnosis. There is no difference between in-phase and opposed-phase imaging and also chemical-shift artefact is strongly reduced 8."
"Serous atrophy of bone marrow presents with non-specific symptoms such as weight loss, cachexia, and anaemia, which affects ~80% of patients. Fevers are frequently observed, often in conjunction with catabolic states, chronic inflammation, and infection, all associated with SABM 8. Patients can also develop osteoporosis and may present with insufficiency fractures."
"SABM is usually an incidental finding 8."
