Abstract:
18F-fluorodeoxyglucos (18F-FDG) PET/CT can provide metabolic information for three dimensional conformal radiation therapy planning. The biological target volume may be influenced by many factors. Studies of target delineation using 18F-FDG PET/CT and methods to improve the misalignment of PET and CT images due to breathing were reviewed in this article.
