Abstract:
Interim fluorine 1 8 fluorodeoxyglucose (1 8 F-FDG)positron emission tomography (PET) integrated with computed tomography (CT) provides both metabolic and morphologic information,which becomes one of the most sensitive tools to evaluate the efficacy of the therapy and predict the prognosis of patients with lymphoma.Meanwhile,it is the basis for guiding trial design and changing clinical practice.How-ever,it is still a controversial issue in the ideal utilization of interim 1 8 F-FDG PET-CT imaging for the patients with lymphoma.
