The aim of this study was to compare PET with 18F-FDG PET, in-line PET/CT, and software
fusion of independently acquired CT and PET scans for staging of recurrent colorectal …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic performance of
manually fused PET images obtained using 18F-FDG and CT images with that of CT alone …

18F-FDG PET/CT has gained wide acceptance for evaluation of recurrent colorectal
carcinoma. However in clinical practice, contrast-enhanced CT (ceCT) is still the first-line …

Positron emission tomography (PET) has been successfully used to image colorectal cancer
(CRC). This study evaluated the accuracy of 2-[18 F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) PET …

Purpose The aim of our study was to evaluate the accuracy of integrated positron emission
tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) using 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) with …

Many imaging modalities and scanning techniques, such as contrast enhanced CT, MRI and
FDG-PET, are available for assessment of recurrent colorectal carcinoma. In addition …

Accurate detection of recurrent colorectal carcinoma remains a diagnostic challenge. The
purposes of this study were to assess the accuracy of 18FDG-PET in patients with recurrent …

Purpose The conventional diagnostic techniques used to assess recurrence of colorectal
cancer (CRCR) often yield unspecific findings. Integrated FDG-PET/CT seems to offer …

Background One-third of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) are likely to have a
recurrence within the first 1–2 years. Conventional imaging modalities have limitations in …

The aims of our study were to examine the impact of PET in changing management in
patients with proven or suspected colorectal cancer recurrence and to assess the impact of …
