2011 Dec open access: Nuclear Medicine and Radiation Therapy - 18FDG-PET/CT Definition of Clinical Target Volume for Robotic Stereotactic Body Radiosurgery Treatment of Metastatic Gynecologic Malignancies
Blogger's Note: investigative research; study of 27 gyn patients of whom 15 were ovarian cancer patients
18FDG-PET/CT Definition of Clinical Target Volume for Robotic Stereotactic Body Radiosurgery Treatment of Metastatic Gynecologic Malignancies
"As stereotactic body radiosurgery for abdominopelvic sites
of metastatic gynecologic cancers becomes more mainstream,
accumulated 18F-FDG PET and CT data will better guide treating
physician target contouring. Future research directions by our group
will study better radiosurgical target delineation, as modified by the
extent of respiratory motion, by four-dimensional (4D)-CT scanners
or by single 18F-FDG PET-magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI)
scanners."
