Description

A pediatric patient with a Non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the hand is presented and the evidence of the different imaging modalities is discussed. Concerning the diagnostic information the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) proved to be superior to conventional radiographs and bone scan. Additionally MRI with Gd-DTPA significantly improved the follow up in this patient. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Eine 9jaehrige Patientin mit einem Non Hodgkin Lymphom der Hand wird vorgestellt und die Evidenz verschiedener bildgebender Verfahren diskutiert. In dieser Fallstudie zeigt sich die Magnetresonanztomographie mit Kontrastmittelaufnahme der konventionellen Roentgendiagnostik sowie der Skelettszintigraphie diagnostisch ueberlegen und erweist sich als wertvoll fuer die Therapiekontrolle.
