<br/><br/> PET was more accurate than CT for diagnosing both nodal and extranodal disease . PET resulted in changes in staging in 8% of patients examined for nodal disease and in 16% of patients examined for extranodal disease . PET is more likely to detect otherwise unsuspected organ involvement in the bone marrow than in the liver, spleen, or the digestive tract
