Overview
Positron emission tomography (PET) scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It is useful in the detection of residual or recurrent tumor after treatment and distant metastasis, prediction of clinical cancer outcome and PET/CT scan is used for NPC staging.
Other Imaging Studies
PET scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. PET scan is used for:[1][2][3][4]
- Detection of the residual or recurrent nasopharyngeal tumor after treatment
- Detection of distant metastasis
- Prediction of clinical cancer outcomes evaluation of tumor metabolic activity
- NPC staging in combination with CT scan
