(18)F-FDG PET/CT-based gross tumor volume definition for radiotherapy in head and neck Cancer: a correlation study between suitable uptake value threshold and tumor parameters

BACKGROUND: To define a suitable threshold setting for gross tumor volume (GTV) when using (18)Fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomogram (PET/CT) for radiotherapy planning in head and neck cancer (HNC). METHODS: Fifteen HNC patients prospectively received PET/CT simulati...
