Radiomic analysis provides information on the underlying tumour heterogeneity in lymphoma, reflecting the real-time evolution of malignancy. 2-Deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography ([18F] FDG PET/CT) imaging is recommended before, during, and at the end of treatment for almost all lymphoma patients. This methodology offers high specificity and sensitivity, which can aid in accurate staging and assist in prompt treatment. Pretreatment [18F] FDG PET/CT-based radiomics facilitates improved diagnostic ability, guides individual treatment regimens, and boosts outcome prognosis based on heterogeneity as well as the biological, pathological, and metabolic status of the lymphoma. This technique has attracted considerable attention given its numerous applications in medicine. In the current review, we will briefly describe the basic radiomics workflow and types of radiomic features. Details of current applications of baseline [18F] FDG PET/CT-based radiomics in lymphoma will be discussed, such as differential diagnosis from other primary malignancies, diagnosis of bone marrow involvement, and response and prognostic prediction. We will also describe how this technique provides a unique noninvasive platform to assess tumour heterogeneity. Newly emerging PET radiotracers and multimodality technology will improve diagnostic specificity and further clarify tumor biology and even genetic variations in lymphoma, potentially promoting the development of precision medicine. © 2022.
