Observational analysis reveals CXCR-4 PET/CT effectiveness in MALT lymphoma, suggesting potential for better diagnosis and treatment.

CXCR-4-directed PET/CT examination improves diagnostic accuracy in MALT lymphoma cases, enhancing treatment options.
MALT lymphoma represents about 5–8% of all B-cell lymphomas, emphasizing its clinical relevance and need for effective imaging.
The study highlights chronic antigenic stimulation, such as from Helicobacter pylori, as a key factor in MALT lymphoma development.
This analysis may enable better management of marginal zone B cell malignancies, advocating for targeted imaging strategies.

LIN et al. (2025) studied this question.
