  • Title: Fludeoxyglucose F 18 PET-Computed Tomography: Management Changes Effecting Patient Outcomes in Gynecologic Malignancies.
    Author: Brunetti JC.
    Journal: PET Clin; 2015 Jul; 10(3):395-409. PubMed ID: 26099674.
    Abstract:
    Outcome analysis in oncologic imaging is complex because of the multiple variables that can affect survival, including how early disease is diagnosed, the accuracy of staging at diagnosis, and where and how the patient is treated. Risk for tumor recurrence is estimated based on tumor histologic grade, stage at diagnosis, and other factors, including expressed molecular markers. This article reviews the data supporting the use of F 18 fluorodeoxyglucose PET-computed tomography in endometrial, ovarian, and cervical malignancies, with emphasis on the impact of imaging on treatment stratification and prognosis.
