Abstract:
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has been increasingly used in the treatment of early-stage NSCLC,especially for patients who cannot undergo surgery.Compared with other imaging modalities,PET/CT has higher sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis and staging of NSCLC as well as higher prediction value for prognosis.The progress of 18F-FDG PET/CT in evaluation of the therapeutic response and prognosis after SBRT for early-stage NSCLC is summarized in this review.
