AI-Summary

What this Trial Is About

This pilot phase I trial studies how well positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), fludeoxyglucose F-18 (18F-FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT), and whole body MRI work in finding extramedullary myeloid leukemia in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Extramedullary myeloid leukemia is a type of cancer found outside of the bone marrow and can be hard to detect with routine bone marrow monitoring, such as bone marrow aspirations. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/MRI, 18F-FDG PET/CT and whole body MRI, may help find and diagnose extramedullary myeloid leukemia in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
