Overview

CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma. Computerized tomography (CT) may be performed to detect metastasis and assess the local extent of extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma.

CT

  • CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis and staging of extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma. Computerized tomography (CT) may be performed to:[1][2]
    • Detect metastases
    • Assess the local extent
  • PET/CT helps staging of extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma and is a good marker for radiotherapy planing.[3]
  • CT scan is a better choice in order to determine if tonsils are involved.
Existing tumor in the nasal cavity, Tonsile involvment is not elicated in MRI.[3]
