Abstract

This report briefly describes the results of an on-going prospective study of the accuracy of lymphography in unselected, previously untreated patients with Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Careful lymphographic-histologic correction of material obtained at staging laparotomy revealed a diagnostic accuracy of greater than 90%. Almost all errors occurred as false-positive diagnoses.
