Contribution of (18)F-Fluoro-ethyl-tyrosine Positron Emission Tomography to Target Volume Delineation in Stereotactic Radiotherapy of Malignant Cranial Base Tumours: First Clinical Experience

Increased amino acid uptake has been demonstrated in intracerebral tumours and head and neck carcinomas of squamous cell origin. We investigated the potential impact of using (18)F-fluoro-ethyl-tyrosine ((18)F-FET)-PET/CT in addition to conventional imaging for gross tumour volume (GTV) delineation...
