PET assesses efficacy of therapy

Patient History
A patient presented with biopsy proven High Grade Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma for staging prior to chemotherapy. A baseline Whole Body PET scan showed extensive disease throughout.

Scan Findings
At completion of chemotherapy, a repeat scan was performed to reassess disease. This showed an excellent response to treatment with resolution of all sites of previously metabolically active disease. The new disease activity in the left lung was thought to be inflammatory or infective in origin.
