Positron emission tomography remains gold standard
imaging for initial investigation and monitoring
treatment response in paediatric lymphoma despite
associated radiation exposure risk factors. Whole body
MRI (WBMRI) provides a non-ionising alternative imaging
modality for assessment of this group of patients.
Anatomical and functional imaging such as diffusion
weighted imaging can be implemented in WBMRI protocols
for a comprehensive assessment of different aspects of
suspected malignancy. In this work we investigated the
diagnostic performance of whole body anatomical and
functional imaging compared to reference standard
PET-CT.
