PET/CT details hint at survival of head and neck cancer patients
Japanese researchers have found that several PET/CT parameters -- in particular, a ring-shaped area of FDG uptake -- are reliable predictors of survival for patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Results of their study were published in the April issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology.

Axial (A) precontrast and (B-D) contrast-enhanced CT images in the (B) hepatic arterial, (C) portal venous, and (D) delayed phases show lesion (arrow in B) with rim arterial phase hyperenhancement categorized as LI-RADS category LR-M. (E) Photograph of resected specimen shows a poorly demarcated HCC. (F) Photomicrograph (hematoxylin-eosin stain) reveals a poorly differentiated HCC with microvascular invasion (arrows). Scale bar in F = 600 µm. Intrahepatic recurrence was observed at 14 months after resection. Image courtesy of the RSNA.
