Is C‐11 Methionine PET an alternative to 18‐F FDG‐PET for identifying recurrent laryngeal cancer after radiotherapy?

OBJECTIVE: 18F FDG‐PET is superior to other imaging techniques in revealing residual laryngeal cancer after radiotherapy. Unfortunately, its specificity is low, due to FDG uptake in inflammation and in anaerobic conditions. PET imaging with the amino acid‐based radiopharmaceutical C11‐methionine (ME...
