Abstract
he article aims to describe the study protocols of multiple myeloma with different imaging techniques. The guidelines
of the major scientific reference societies for multiple myeloma - IMWG (International Myeloma Working Group) and
NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network) - provide for the study of CT WB, RM WB and PET / CT, which
have completely outclassed traditional radiology. Each method contributes to acquiring an added value in the work
up and follow up of patients suffering from multiple myeloma.
