  • Title: ¹⁸F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography in malignancies of the thyroid and in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: a review of the literature.
    Author: Lauridsen JK, Rohde M, Thomassen A.
    Journal: PET Clin; 2015 Jan; 10(1):75-88. PubMed ID: 25455881.
    Abstract:
    18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) is a valuable diagnostic tool in a spectrum of malignant and benign conditions, because of a high sensitivity to detect even very small lesions with increased metabolism. This review focuses on the use of FDG-PET/CT in malignancies of the thyroid gland and in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
