Primary Lymphoma of Bone: MRI and CT Characteristics During and After Successful Treatment

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to describe MRI and CT characteristics of primary lymphoma of bone during and after successful treatment. CONCLUSION: MRI showed a rapid decrease of tumor volume with complete disappearance of the soft-tissue component. Minor signal abnormalities of bone marrow without clinical relevance persisted for up to 2 years. CT showed bone remodeling within months with a persistent architecture similar to that of Paget's disease of the bone.
