  • Title: [Role of positron emission tomography and CT with 18F-FDG PET-CT in follow-up of patients treated for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma].
    Author: Rivière D, Morvan JB, Fakhry N, Vatin L, Cathelinaud O, Bousquet F, Giovanni A, Verdalle P.
    Journal: Rev Laryngol Otol Rhinol (Bord); 2014; 135(3):127-33. PubMed ID: 26521355.
    Abstract:
    The authors in this article, made from a review of the scientific literature (PubMed search engine), indicate the current position of positron emission tomography with 18F-fluro-2-deoxy-D-glucose coupled computed tomography (PET-CT) in the early and late post-treatment follow up of squamous cell carcinomas of the upper aerodigestive tract. The aim of this follow up is twofold: Early detection of locoregional progressive evolution or metastatic progression and search for a possible second metachronous cancer in patients at risk.
