18F-FDG PET and PET/CT in the evaluation of cancer treatment response Ben-Haim S; Ell PJ Nucl Med 2009[Jan]; 50 (1): 88-99Multimodality imaging, as represented by its greatest exponent, PET/CT, has a firm place in the evaluation of a patient presenting with cancer. With 18F-FDG, PET/CT is rapidly becoming the key investigative tool for the staging and assessment of cancer recurrence. In the last 5 y, PET/CT has also gained widespread acceptance as a key tool used to demonstrate early response to intervention and therapy. In this setting, a major clinical need is being addressed with 18F-FDG PET/CT, because of its inherent ability to demonstrate (before other markers of response) if disease modification has occurred. This review presents available evidence to this effect.|*Fluorodeoxyglucose F18[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Neoplasms/*diagnostic imaging/therapy[MESH]|Positron-Emission Tomography/*methods[MESH]|Tomography, X-Ray Computed/*methods[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
