Abstract
A retrospective study of 65 histologically proven lymphoma patients evaluated the staging capabilities of CT in Hodgkin's disease. Nodal and extranodal tumor manifestations were detected in the mediastinum (89%), thoracic bones (23%), pleura (26%), periphery of the lung, and in 14% as an infiltrating thoracic well lesion. Advantages and disadvantages of the method are discussed.
