Functional imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) is playing an increasingly
important role in the diagnosis and staging of malignant disease, image-guided therapy …

BACKGROUND: This study evaluates the utility of positron emission tomography (PET),
endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), and computed tomographic (CT) scans to predict …

The rationale was to develop recommendations on the use of 18F-FDG PET in breast,
colorectal, esophageal, head and neck, lung, pancreatic, and thyroid cancer; lymphoma …

Purpose: Target delineation using only CT information introduces large geometric
uncertainties in radiotherapy for lung cancer. Therefore, a reduction of the delineation …

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships among [18 F]
fluorodeoxyglucose ([18 F]-FDG) uptake, Glut-1 and HK-II expressions, and grade of …

BACKGROUND The current study was performed to assess the value of 2‐fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐d‐
glucose positron emission tomography (FDG‐PET) in predicting the pathologic response …

18-F-fluoro-D-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) has become an
established imaging tool in clinical oncology, cardiology and neurology and is now entering …

PURPOSE: The prostate is known to translate and rotate under influence of rectal filling
changes and many studies have addressed the magnitude of these motions. However …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To evaluate the process of target volume delineation in
lung cancer for optimization of imaging, delineation protocol and delineation software …

Fluorodeoxyglucose-PET (FDG-PET) has evolved into one of the major imaging modalities
commonly used in the management of a variety of malignancies [1, 2]. This application …
