R-ISS / R2-ISS staging

• Bone marrow (leukaemia, MDS, MPN, myeloma)Standard-risk vs high-risk cytogenetics (IMS 2024 definition) · Extramedullary disease (soft-tissue plasmacytomas; harder to control, a focus of CAR-T and bispecific trials) · Plasma cell leukaemia (≥5% circulating plasma cells) · Smouldering myeloma and MGUS (precursors)
• Lymph node germinal centre (lymphomas)
• Spleen
• Blood (leukaemic phase)Plasma cell leukaemia (≥5% circulating plasma cells)
• Lytic bone lesions (myeloma)Extramedullary disease (soft-tissue plasmacytomas; harder to control, a focus of CAR-T and bispecific trials)
• Skin and extranodal sites

• cervical
• axillary
• mediastinal
• para-aortic and mesenteric
• inguinal

In lymphoma the node stations are the disease itself; staging (Ann Arbor / Lugano) counts how many regions and sides of the diaphragm are involved.
