Fig. 1 A 68-year-old man with extensive FDG-avid bone marrow lesions, demonstrated at coronal maximum intensity projection FDG-PET (A). Blind BMB of the right posterior iliac crest was negative for lymphoma. The large destructive left sacral lesion (A, arrow), also demonstrated at axial CT (B, arrow) and axial FDG-PET/CT (C, arrow), was therefore biopsied using CT guidance (D). Histopathologic examination revealed DLBCL. Blood Reviews 2015 29, 417-425DOI: (10.1016/j.blre.2015.06.003) Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Ltd Terms and Conditions
