Primary central nervous system lymphoma: is whole-body CT and FDG PET/CT for initial imaging reasonable?
Original language description
Central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma is an aggressive neoplasm that may involve brain, spinal cord, meninges and eyes. Primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) is limited only to CNS, mostly to the brain. Isolated affection of meninges, eyes or spinal cord is rare. However, CNS may be affected secondarily by systemic (body) lymphoma; therefore, secondary CNS lymphoma (SCNSL) was sometimes called metastatic lymphoma. PCNSL accounts for about 1% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) and for approximately 2% of all CNS tumors.
