The prognostic value of conventional imaging tools to determine how patients with hodgkin lymphoma will respond to treatment by Kamran Aryana, Abolghasem Allahyari, Ramin Sadeghi, Farrokh Silanian Tousi, Mohammad Mahdi Kooshyar, Seyed Hosein Hashemipour, Hamideh Sadra

“…All remaining 12 articles considered both the sestamibi scans and the gallium scintigraphy.The results of the systematic review indicate that positive gallium scan results can be proposed as a poor prognostic factor that is associated with partial or full recurrence of Hodgkin disease, a reduction in overall survival rate, and progression-free survival compared with patients with a negative scan.Discussion: Both sestamibi and gallium scans revealed high sensitivity and specificity in predicting the response to treatment including complete remission, partial remission, and recurrence of the disease.Conclusion:These imaging tools can appropriately assess how Hodgkin patients will respond to chemotherapy. …”
