| Abstract: | ![]()
The fusion of PET and computed tomography, which provide metabolic and structural images, respectively, has improved the diagnostic precision of PET in oncology. Some current procedures in the PET/CT acquisition as contrast enhanced CT/PET, the use of PET/CT in radiotherapy planning and the PET-MRI can drastically change the approach of oncologic patients. Finally, inclusions of PET/CT in oncologic diagnostic algorithm and prognostic nomograms are pending issues. |
