Abstract
PurposeThe potential role of four-dimensional (4D) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in radiation treatment planning, relative to standard three-dimensional (3D) PET/CT, was examined.Methods and MaterialsTen patients with non–small-cell lung cancer had sequential 3D and 4D [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT scans in the treatment position prior to radiation therapy. The gross tumor volume and involved lymph nodes were...
