We are reporting about the results of the staging by ultrasound in 11 children with Hodgkin's disease. Sonography stands the test as a method that reliably predicts abdominal involvement in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma. Only in a few cases an indication for an additional computerized tomography is given. A demonstration of typical ultrasonic findings takes place.
