Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
ObservationalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.
- Medical records research — uses historical information collected from medical records of large groups of people to study how diseases progress and which treatments and surgeries work best.

About this study
The purpose of this study is to use magnetic resonance elastography to determine if the mechanical properties of either Hodgkin's or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma tumors change in response to the administration of chemotherapy agents (in which the agent is known to produce a positive treatment response) and that this change is detected by MRE within 24 hours following therapy.
