Abstract
Positron emission tomography (PET) may be useful for defining the gross tumour volume for radiation treatment planning and for response monitoring of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The purpose of this study was to compare tumour sizes obtained from CT- and various more commonly available PET-based tumour delineation methods to pathology findings.Retrospective non-respiratory gated whole body [18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose PET/CT...
