1). Mrs Johnson underwent further blood tests including serum electrophoresis, 24-hour urine collection and bone marrow biopsy. These demonstrated an elevated monoclonal protein within the blood; histopathological analysis of the bone marrow confirmed the marrow was largely replaced with plasma cells, diagnostic of multiple myeloma. (anaemia or infection), bone pain, fractures, hypercalcaemia, hyperviscosity or fatigue • Treatment is primarily with chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation • Treatment is palliative; there is no cure for multiple myeloma How might you assess the extent of disease in patients with multiple myeloma?

7 Axial CT image at the level of the renal hilum. III PA R T 2 : C A S E S IIIE presence of multiple extranodal disease sites (liver and adrenal glands) makes this case Stage IV disease. The clinical features are termed ‘B symptoms’. IV What size is considered ‘normal’ for lymph nodes identified at CT? The development of CT technology has enabled clear depiction of smaller and smaller lymph nodes. Measured in the ‘short axis’, perpendicular to the longest axis of a node in the axial plane, the size considered normal ranges from 6 mm in the retrocrural space to 12 mm in the subcarinal and para-aortic spaces.
