Haemato-radiology: the role of the radiologist at MDT.

Haemato-radiology represents a relatively newly emerging, vast, and complex area of diagnostic imaging. Its complexity arises from the multimodality nature of patient assessment, the multisystem presentation of haematological malignancies and their complications, and the volume of imaging required for diagnosis and follow-up of the fifth most common malignancy type in the United Kingdom. Decisive and accurate assessment of disease by radiologists is at the heart of the haemato-oncology multidisciplinary team (MDT) and therefore essential for providing optimal patient care. We hope to support radiologists leading the MDT by streamlining the vast information in this field, emphasizing the most recent, evidence-based guidelines, and internationally accepted criteria for reporting imaging of lymphoma and myeloma. We also cover the various disease and treatment complications frequently presented to the MDT. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
