[The significance of computer tomography in the diagnosis, planning, therapy planning and control of the therapy of malignant lymphomas].

Staging of malignant lymphomas is significantly improved by computed tomography. This method not only visualizes enlarged lymph nodes, but also enables the assessment of organs which could also be affected within the overall underlying disease. Accuracy of diagnosis of computed tomography is between 80 and 95%, depending upon the examined area. The distance between the cuts, as well as contrast enhancement of the intestine and the vessels are major factors in promoting the accuracy of diagnosis. In addition, computed tomography represents a safe and non-invasive tool in therapy planning and control.
