Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system that can involve lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow, and many other organs.
Symptoms may include enlarged lymph nodes, fevers, drenching night sweats, weight loss, tiredness, itching, or swelling depending on where the disease is active.
Imaging helps when enlarged nodes or unexplained symptoms need investigation, and it is especially important for staging, treatment response, and follow-up.
CT, PET-CT, ultrasound, and MRI may be used for diagnosis support, staging, treatment response, and surveillance.
Management depends on the lymphoma type and stage and may include chemotherapy, targeted treatment, radiation, or specialist hematology care.
