pubmed:abstractText |
Accurate detection of recurrent colorectal carcinoma remains a clinical challenge. Positron emission tomography (PET) using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG) is an imaging technique that allows direct evaluation of cellular metabolism. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET was compared to computed tomography (CT) and CT portography for staging metastatic colorectal carcinoma.
