Compares tumor volume measurements using PET-CT fusion and CT imaging, suggesting implications for treatment accuracy in head and neck cancer.
PET-CT fusion consistently identifies larger gross tumor volumes than CT alone in locally advanced head and neck cancer, with systematic underestimation by anatomic imaging. This has significant implications for adequate tumor coverage and treatment planning accuracy in definitive radiotherapy.
