Fatty-marrow transformation following radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer detected using dual-energy computed tomography: A case report

Bone damage, a late side effect of radiotherapy, occurs concurrently with the replacement of fat cells in the bone marrow, causing changes in bone composition. Changes in composition can affect bone quality and disease states, and reduced bone mass can reduce quality of life by increasing the risk o...
