## Abstract __Background__. Positron emission tomography (PET) provides a noninvasive modality for evaluating the biochemical processes of normal and pathologic tissue. Preliminary reports of F‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET indicate its potential usefulness in evaluating head and neck tumors. The
