The use of (11)carbon methionine positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to enhance radiotherapy planning in the treatment of a giant, invasive pituitary adenoma
A 54-year-old male presented with visual loss owing to a giant, infiltrative pituitary adenoma. Following decompressive trans-sphenoidal surgery, the patient was referred for adjuvant radiotherapy. We describe the potential utility of (11)carbon methionine positron emission tomography imaging in con...
