Systemic staging is recommended only for patients with unfavourable intermediate and high-risk disease; with bone and lymph node assessments usually being performed using bone scan (BS) and computed tomography (CT), respectively.<br>Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the imaging technique with the highest sensitivity for the detection of bone metastases and has shown promising results also for lymph node assessments.<br>In this report we illustrate how MRI provided a comprehensive assessment of local disease as well as bone and lymph node metastases in a patient with PCa.
