Abstract:Background
Bone marrow biopsy (BMB) is a cornerstone in the staging of aggressive lymphomas, yet its relevance in indolent lymphomas remains under scrutiny. This study assessed the utility of BMB in positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) staging for low-grade follicular lymphomas (FL).
Methods
This retrospective study analyzed the records of patients newly diagnosed with low-grade (grade 1–2) FL who underwent initial staging with both PET/CT and BMB at two Chinese institutions from 2010 to… Show more
