## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Although studies comparing conventional imaging modalities with ^18^Fβfluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (^18^FβFDGβPET) for the detection of lymphoma and although the relations between ^18^FβFDGβPET and histologic types were reported previously, most studie

## Background: [f-18]fluorodeoxyglucose (fdg)-positron emission tomography (pet) can measure the metabolic activity of tissues; fdg-pet may be able to predict response to chemotherapy by identifying changes in tumor metabolism. measurement of response to treatment may help improve survival in the m
## Fluoride-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) can evaluate patients with new pulmonary lesions. CT-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy is a well-described method in the diagnosis of pulmonary lesions. In order to correlate results from these testing modalities, ret
