Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical value of the use of O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine (FET) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in patients of a neurological clinic for evaluation of brain lesions newly diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
