Overview
PET scan (positron emission tomography) integrated with CT scan may be helpful in the staging and treatment response assessment of mantle cell lymphoma.
Other Imaging Studies
There seems to no concrete consensus about the usefulness of PET/CT scan in lymphomas. However, in some studies it has been shown that it may be helpful in the staging and treatment response assessment of mantle cell lymphoma, which is considered a fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid tumor and shows activity on the PET scan.[1]
