Purpose: In this study, the aim is to compare the findings of conventional bone scintigraphyand whole-body magnetic resonance imaging for the known primary malignancy in patientswith bone metastases.Methods: 34 patients were studied with retrospectively and prospectively. The detectionsensitivity, specificity and adaptation of bone metastases were examined whit whole-bodymagnetic resonance imaging and bone scintigraphy.Results: Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging has a higher sensitivity than bonescintigraphy for the detection of metastases.Conclusion: Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging can be used for bone metastases forscreening as an alternative imaging modality
