| Main Objective: To evaluate the specificity of 18F-FLT PET to identify the presence of residual disease or recurrence in patients affected by lymphoma. Patients will be selected on the basis of a 18F-FDG PET resulted positive or suspect for relapse or residual disease;Secondary Objective: To compare the specificity of 18F-FLT PET with that of 18F-FDG PET (the tracer usually employed at present) . To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of 18F-FLT PET as compared to biopsy after 18F-FDG PET (the tracer usually employed at present);Primary end point(s): Specificity of 18F-FLT PET to identify areas of increased tracer uptake and thus increased proliferation will be evaluated by comparison of PET results with biopsy results | — |
