PET, PET/CT, and PET/MR Imaging Assessment of Breast Cancer
PET Clinics, 2008This review focuses mainly on clinical applications of PET/CT in patients with breast cancer. It discusses the role of 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) PET/CT (and FDG PET) in the diagnosis and initial staging of breast cancer, in monitoring the response of disease to chemotherapy, and in identifying metastatic and recurrent disease. In addition,
