How does FDG-PET compare to whole-body MRI in lymphoma disease?
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, November 28 | 11:15 a.m.-11:25 a.m. | SSA18-04 | Room S505ABItalian researchers will answer that question at RSNA 2010 in Chicago, when they present their study results showing that whole-body MRI is fast and feasible for staging and restaging lymphoma disease; however, the modality falls short in matching the accuracy of FDG-PET/CT.
