Figure 3

Magnetic resonance images enhanced in short inversion time inversion recovery (STIR) in coronal (left and middle) and sagittal (right). The alteration in the signal of the bone marrow of the vertebral bodies and both iliac bones can be seen by countless discrete images with hyperintense signals of contours, rounded, diameters of up to 13 mm, which are compatible diffuse commitment by multiple myeloma. In addition, the asymmetry in the size of both kidneys can be observed. The adequate attention in a lesion suggestive of neoplasia.
