Research Abstract |
Malignant lymphomas are characterized by repeated remissions and relapses. If the effect of treatment is able to be evaluated at an early stage, in the case that effect of treatment insufficiency is predicted, a regimen may be change and may improve a prognosis. In this study, metabolism images with PET and images with CT/MRI in the malignant lymphoma of the human and the small animal were compared and evaluated. We aim at the establishment of a more highly-detailed image evaluation system.
