    Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1985 Oct; 30(10):44-8. PubMed ID: 3903422.
    Abstract:
    Ultrasound investigation was conducted in 21 patients with Hodgkin's disease to determine the involvement of the spleen and liver in the process. The results obtained were verified histologically in 19 cases at laporotomy and in 2 cases at autopsy. Focal spleen lesion (focal sizes from 0.3-2 cm) was correctly recognized in 7 out of 9 patients, liver lesion in 3 out 4 patients. No false-positive results were obtained in cases in which spleen and liver lesions were not determined histologically. The value of ultrasound investigation for dynamic observation in liver lesion was emphasized. The method was recommended for a wide clinical use and assessment of therapeutic results of disseminated Hodgkin's disease.
