By Shalmali Pal
LOS ANGELES - In cancer patients who develop bone metastases, symptom clusters refer to a stable group of at least two interrelated and concurrent symptoms that are relatively independent of other clusters.

Case study: Baker's cyst
By Dr. Shamim Malik
In a Baker's cyst, fluid accumulates around the knee with the gastrocnemio-semimembranosus bursa, resulting in a herniation from the posterior aspect of the knee, through the gap between the medial head of the gastrocnemius and semimembranosus tendon. Dr. Shamim Malik of Kenya discusses a case of Baker's cyst, as well as the role of imaging in making the differential diagnosis.
