[Ultrasound diagnosis of malignant lymphomas].
The most effective treatment of malignant lymphomas requires an exact diagnosis of the spreading of the tumour in the organism (staging). In this respect the combination of various radiological methods, actually including both sonography and computed tomography stood the test. However, in order to put the ultrasound into the right place of the diagnostic-step programme one has to know the advantages as well as the limitations of this method: the sonography ought to be used at the beginning of the diagnosis and in controlling the success of the treatment of malignant lymphomas.
