A retrospective evaluation of mediastinal tomograms, isotope liver scans, and isotope bone scans in the staging and management of patients with lymphoma

Abstract
The influence of mediastinal tomograms and isotope scans of liver and bone on the initial staging and management of patients with lymphoma has been studied. There appears to be only a small role for these investigative procedures, and it is suggested that considerable savings in time and money can be made by a more judicious use of these techniques.
