摘要：

[F-18] fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) imaging is routinely used in the initial diagnosis and response assessment during and immediately after therapy, as well as in the follow-up surveillance. FDG PET/CT outperforms diagnostic CT and other conventional imaging modalities in the evaluation of pediatric patients with lymphoma, with higher sensitivity and specificity, leading to more accurate staging/restaging and modifications of therapeutic strategies. Resolution of FDG-avid lesions in the early post-therapy phase often indicates good response to treatment and better prognosis. FDG PET/CT also outperforms bone marrow biopsy in detecting bone marrow infiltration of lymphoma.
