  • Title: [Computed tomography and MR tomography before and after radiotherapy of primary and secondary CNS lymphoma].
    Author: Dewes W, Boldt I, Leipner N, Krahe T, von Itter C.
    Journal: Strahlenther Onkol; 1987 Sep; 163(9):613-20. PubMed ID: 3660227.
    Abstract:
    CT scans were made prior to and following radiotherapy in eleven patients with primary or secondary malignant lymphomas of the CNS. Six patients were additionally submitted to MR tomography with calculated T1 and T2 images. Radiotherapy induced a very rapid regression of the lymphomas. A measurable quantitative influence of the irradiation could thus not be visualized in the MR scans. The survival curve of our patients was calculated, too. The median survival after radiotherapy is 17.4 months.
