Overview
A PET scan can be helpful in spotting small collections of cancer cells, to detect whether an enlarged lymph node has lymphoma or not, to see the response of treatment, and to help decide whether an enlarged lymph node still contains lymphoma or is merely scar tissue after treatment.
Other Imaging Findings
- A PET scan can be helpful in spotting small collections of cancer cells.[1][2][3][4][5]
- It is even more valuable when combined with a CT scan (PET/CT scan).
- PET scan can also be helpful to tell if an enlarged lymph node contains lymphoma or not.
- It can help spot small areas that might be lymphoma, even if the area looks normal on a CT scan.
- It can be used to tell if a lymphoma is responding to the treatment.
- They can also be used after treatment to help decide whether an enlarged lymph node still contains lymphoma or is merely scar tissue.
