Although lymphography may be more accurate in assessing the extent of abdominal and pelvic Hodgkin's lymphoma, computed tomography (CT) has similar or greater overall accuracy than other imaging modalities in detecting malignant lymph nodes in the neck, chest, abdomen and pelvis. In this early stage of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, its depiction of nodes is apparently mostly similar to that of CT. In addition, MR imaging shows the capacity to distinguish between enlarged lymph nodes caused by acute inflammation and those caused by malignant processes.
