Abstract |
18F-FDG PET has a higher diagnostic accuracy than CT in initial staging of testicular cancer. In seminoma, it can discriminate residual tumor from necrosis/fibrosis or mature teratoma. 18F-FDG PET is also useful for the response evaluation of chemotherapy. However, there’s no clinical evidence for the use of 18F-FDG PET in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of testicular cancer. (Nucl Med Mol Imaging 2008;42(suppl 1):121-125)
