## Abstract ## BACKGROUND It is known that 18βfluoroβ2βdeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDGβPET) is effective in the early detection of residual/recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC). To compare FDGβPET with the conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the detection of resid

## Abstract ## Background. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of thalliumβ201 (Tlβ201) singleβphoton emission CT (SPECT) to detect recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC) when MRI findings are indeterminate. ## Methods. After radiotherapy, 26 NPC patients with indeterminate M
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The diagnostic accuracy of technetiumβ99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile (TcβMIBI) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and computed tomography (CT) of the head and neck for differentiating recurrent or residual nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC) from benign lesions
## BACKGROUND. The diagnostic accuracy of combined computed tomography (CT) and technetium 99m tetrofosmin (Tc-TF) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) of head and neck to differentiate recurrent or residual nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPCs) from benign lesions after radiotherapy was
