Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of hematologic neoplasms which arise from malignant lymphocytes. Imaging plays an important role in management of lymphoma patients during diagnosis, staging, and response assessment. Functional imaging may also provide prognostic information and improve the ability to detect extranodal disease. This article provides an overview of the evolving role of various imaging techniques in lymphoma from the clinician's perspective. It serves as an introduction to the other articles in this issue that focus on specific areas of lymphoma imaging.
