    Author: Semenov II.
    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1997; 43(2):198-201. PubMed ID: 9214122.
    Abstract:
    The data on clinico-sonographic examination of 603 patients with Hodgkin's disease and non Hodgkin is disease are presented. Involvement of abdominal lymph nodes was recorded in 186 (30.8%) cases. The diagnostic procedure specificity and sensitivity in Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's disease were 98.5; 64.5 and 99.6; 86.1%, respectively. The results of sonography application in detecting malignant lymphomas in the liver and spleen proved uninspiring because only foci could be identified which accounted for not more than 6-10% of all lesions of different organs. Diffuse lesions were detected in a few cases only.
