Integrated positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) is a new
imaging modality offering anatomic and metabolic information. The purpose was to evaluate …

Lung cancer is a common disease and is a leading cause of death in many countries. The
management of lung cancer is directed by an optimal staging of the tumour. Integrated …

The purpose was evaluating retrospectively the additional value of integrated positron
emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) in the detection of pulmonary …

The aim of the present study was to assess retrospectively the additional value of positron
emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in the detection of unexpected …

Fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has a diagnostic and
prognostic value in the initial staging, restaging, and surveillance of non–small-cell lung …

Background We compared the diagnostic accuracy of integrated positron-emission

(PET)–computed tomographic (CT) imaging, as compared with PET alone and CT alone, in …

The use of PET/CT imaging in the work-up and management of patients with lung cancer
has greatly increased in recent decades. The ability to combine functional and anatomical …

Accurate staging is essential to offer the patient the most effective available treatment and
the best estimate of prognosis. In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), surgical resection …
