Diagnostic B‐scan ultrasonography has the capacity to evaluate many potential sites of abdominal and pelvic involvement by Hodgkin's disease and non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma. The varying ultrasonographic features of lymphomatous involvement in the peritoneal cavity and retroperitoneal space are described and potential diagnostic pitfalls are discussed.
