AIMS/METHODS: A longitudinal study of 22 malignant lymph nodes by colour Doppler (CD) and/or colour power (CP) ultrasonography was undertaken in 12 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients to delineate changes in vascularity, and correlate this response with clinical outcome.
Reduced vascularity in response to chemotherapy was shown to be a positive prognostic sign.
More persistent nodal vascularity may signify a less favourable prognosis.
目的/方法：对12例非霍奇金淋巴瘤患者的22个恶性淋巴结进行了一项纵向研究，采用彩色多普勒（CD）和/或彩色能量（CP）超声检查来描绘血管变化，并将这种反应与临床结果相关联。
化疗后血管减少被证明是一个积极的预后指标。
更持续的淋巴结血管可能预示预后较差。
