A comparative study of target volumes based on (18)F-FDG PET-CT and ten phases of 4DCT for primary thoracic squamous esophageal cancer

PURPOSE: To investigate the correlations in target volumes based on (18)F-FDG PET/CT and four-dimensional CT (4DCT) to detect the feasibility of implementing PET in determining gross target volumes (GTV) for tumor motion for primary thoracic esophageal cancer (EC). METHODS: Thirty-three patients wit...
