46 patients with recently diagnosed carcinoma of the breast were included in a prospective comparative study of MRI and bone marrow scintigraphy. The aim of the study was to compare these procedures within a histologically unified patient collective. It was shown that MRI was superior to bone marrow scintigraphy in respect of sensitivity (92% vs 58%) and specificity (97% vs. 85%), although only about three quarters of the marrow spaces are examined by MRI screening. Bone marrow scintigraphy suffered particularly from a relatively high number of false positive findings (haemangiomas, degenerative changes). MRI remains the method of choice for investigating the bone marrow.
