## Abstract ## Background The aim of this study was to determine prospectively the incremental value of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) over conventional assessment (clinical examination and CT/MRI imaging). ## Methods All patients undergoing ^18^Fβfluorodeoxyglucose (F
Background. The fusion of fluoro-2-deoxy-Dglucose -positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) with CT scans has been shown to improve diagnostic accuracy and staging in non-small cell lung cancer. We report on the influence of PET-CT fusion on the management of patients with head and neck cancer. Metho
## Abstract ## Background. This study assesses the additional value of ^18^Fβfluoroβ2βdeoxyβDβglucose positron emission tomography/CT (^18^FβFDGβPET/CT) with respect to synchronous primaries in patients undergoing panendoscopy for staging of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. ## Methods. In
