Abstract

A description of specific features of CT-MRI in rare patient with perirenal non-Hodgkins lymphoma is presented in the article. CT scan was used to determine the accumulation of contrast medium and pathological vessels along the right kidneys border. Diffusion weighted MRI revealed the low values of the measured diffusion coefficient (MDC) and high accumulation index of the paramagnetic in the tumor tissue (0.59-0.62). The specific features of perirenal non-Hodgkins lymphoma on CT/MRI, an evaluation of the tumors volume and stage, and signs of malignancy are described.

Keywords: Non-Hodgkin lymphoma; computer tomography; magnetic resonance imaging; perirenal space.
