    Abstract: A problem to be addressed by the present invention is to provide: a method for detecting bone metastasis of cancer (excluding castration resistant prostate cancer) in a simple and highly accurate manner; and a reagent that can be used in the method. Bone metastasis of cancer (excluding castration resistant prostate cancer) is detected by measuring an intact growth and differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) propeptide level, a GDF15 propeptide fragment level, and the total of an intact GDF15 propeptide level and a GDF15 propeptide fragment level in a sample. The above described method for detecting bone metastasis of cancer includes a method for detecting bone metastasis of prostate cancer other than castration resistant prostate cancer, renal cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, pancreatic cancer, bladder cancer, colon cancer, melanoma, myeloma, or lymphoma. Further, the reagent for detecting bone metastasis of cancer (excluding castration resistant prostate cancer) includes an antibody that specifically recognizes GDF15 propeptide.

    Abstract: An evaluation method is performed by an arithmetic circuit and includes obtainment processing (S 1), evaluation processing (S2), and presentation processing (S3). The obtainment processing (S 1) obtains: image information on a sectional image representing an interested section of an organism including a target section of a testis of the organism generated by use of magnetic resonance of hydrogen atoms; and concentration information on a creatine concentration in the interested section measured by use of magnetic resonance based on chemical exchange saturation transfer. The evaluation processing (S2) generates an evaluation image representing a distribution of evaluation results of a testicular function in the target section based on the concentration information. The presentation processing (S3) presents the sectional image and the evaluation image.
