What May Abnormality Of Bone Marrow Shown On CT Scan Suggest?

I recently had a CT scan done on my pelvis due to pain in my lower back, and groin area and goes down my right leg which was caused by a car accident last August. The CT scan showed that my bone marrow on the right side looks abnormal. A full body scan has been ordered for me. What could the diagnoses be?

often such a finding is benign, but obviously the doctor wants to be sure there is no sort of true bone marrow abnormality or blood disorder. But since the result is many times not worrisome, you should not fear the worst prior to the bone scan.
