Abstract
The diagnosis of Non- Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is critical in starting treatment protocol. This including, serum biological markers, histo-pathological and CT. The clinical importance of biological markers in NHL stems from their function in morphologic diagnosis, staging, and prognostic assessment, as well as their contribution to disease monitoring. The current study investigated the sensitivity of magnetic resonance (MR) in fifty patients with NHL compared with other methods. This prospective study including 50 patients (18-50 years) were selected from oncology Unit, Ghamrah Military Hospital, suspected with NHL. Fasting blood samples, needle aspiration from lymph node and scanning with MR. Results: Data obtained from MR, 44 /50 patients showed an enlarged lymph nodes separated from vessels, 40/50 showed a significant elevation of CA125, LDH and β 2-Microglobulin while 42/50 showed pathological alteration of lymph node cell samples. It was concluded that, Lymphoma lesions with MR showd high accuracy than biochemical and histo-pathological diagnosis.
