    Lymphoma is a malignant disorder with increasing global incidence, characterized by aggressive behavior and multi-organ involvement.

  • 2

    Functional imaging, particularly ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT, is crucial for diagnosing lymphoma and assessing treatment response.

  • 3

    Diffuse FDG uptake in the spleen and bone marrow may indicate systemic inflammation and has unclear prognostic significance in lymphoma.

  • 4

    The study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of diffuse FDG uptake in lymphoma patients and its correlation with inflammatory markers.

  • 5

    Integrating PET/CT metrics with inflammatory parameters may enhance prognostic stratification and guide individualized treatment strategies.
