Prospective evaluation of pretreatment and intratreatment FDG PET‐CT SUV stability in primary head and neck cancer
Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate standardized uptake value (SUV) stability on pretreatment and intratreatment 18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) in patients undergoing definitive CRT for head and neck cancer (HNC).
METHODS: Primary tumor and nodal volumes of interest (VOIs) from HNC patients were contoured on the pretreatment and intratreatment PET-CT by two independent observers. SUV stability was …
