## BACKGROUND. Positron emission tomography (PET) with 2-deoxy-2-fluoro[ 18 F]-Dglucose (FDG) can provide quantitative information about tumor glucose metabolism. The prognostic value of this technique was evaluated for breast carcinoma patients. ## METHODS. FDG PET was performed on 70 patients w
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The clinical value of positron emission tomography (PET) with [^18^F]fluoroβ2βdeoxyβDβglucose (FDG) for primary staging in cervical carcinoma appears to be promising. The authors sought to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and benefit of PET in restaging cervical carcinoma
