title: Imaging findings in immunosuppressed patients with Epstein Barr virus-related B cell malignant lymphoma.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of this study was to describe multimodality imaging findings in immunosuppressed patients with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related malignant lymphoproliferative diseases.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  EBV-related malignant lymphoproliferative diseases share common features with other aggressive lymphomas, including a high degree of extranodal involvement, tumor vascularization, and tumor necrosis. Cognizance of the particular underlying diseases and conditions associated with the development of EBV-related lymphoproliferative diseases and associated imaging results should provide more accurate diagnosis.
