Abstract
In an attempt to avoid unnecessary therapy, this article demonstrates benign vertebral body lesions that mimic metastatic disease in cancer patients with back pain. The magnetic resonance imaging features that aid in differential diagnosis are demonstrated. In addition, the value of diffusion-weighted spinal imaging to further aid in distinguishing benign from malignant disease is described.Entities:
