Overview
Chest, abdomen, and pelvis CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of Burkitt's lymphoma.[1]
CT
Chest, abdomen, and pelvis CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of Burkitt's lymphoma.[1]
- On chest CT scan the following findings may be observed:
- Presence of nodules and masses suggestive of central lymphadenopathy[2]
- Pleural effusion[2]
- Pericardial effusion[2]
- Pleural thickening[3]
- On abdomen and pelvis CT scan the following is seen:
- Involvement of organs and peritoneum/extranodal involvement[4]
- Ascites[5]
- Lymphadenopathy[3]
- Bone lesions[6]
