Hematologic malignancies are a broad category of cancers arising from the lymphoid and myeloid cell lines. The 2016 World Health Organization classification system incorporated molecular markers as part of the diagnostic criteria and includes more than 100 subtypes. This article focuses on the subtypes for which imaging with positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has become an integral component of the patient’s evaluation, that is, lymphoma and multiple myeloma. Leukemia and histiocytic and dendritic cell neoplasms are also discussed as these indications for PET/CT are less common, but increasingly seen in clinic.
