Gamma Delta (γδ) T-cell lymphomas are uncommon and aggressive neoplasms originating from the γδ receptor-bearing lymphocytes. The most frequent entities include primary hepatosplenic γδ T-cell lymphomas, primary cutaneous γδ lymphoma, and monomorphic epitheliotropic T-cell lymphoma. F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT is an important modality in the staging of Hodgkin's and various non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, literature is scare on imaging findings of γδ lymphoma on F-18 FDG PET/CT. In this review, we discuss briefly the clinical and biological features and present the spectrum of F-18 FDG PET/CT findings of γδ lymphoma.
