This study seeks to compare the treatment responses of Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients using FDG PET/CT scans. 152 patients with histologically confirmed Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas, who had undergone FDG PET/CT imaging for evaluating their treatment response after their initial chemotherapy regimen, were included in a retrospective study. The findings revealed that Hodgkin's lymphoma was more prevalent in females, and both types of lymphomas showed similar complete metabolic responses. However, Hodgkin's lymphoma demonstrated higher mild/high partial responses, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma showed lower progressive metabolic disease.
