Bone Scan Index predicts skeletal-related events in patients with metastatic breast cancer

BACKGROUND: Bone Scan Index (BSI) expresses tumor burden in bone as a percentage of total skeletal mass, but its significance for metastatic breast cancer patients is unknown. We investigated whether baseline BSI is associated with skeletal-related events (SREs) or survival and identified the cut-of...
