Primary and Metastatic Brain Tumours Assessed with the Brain and Torso [(18)F]FDG PET/CT Study Protocol—10 Years of Single-Institutional Experiences

According to the international societies’ recommendations, the 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ([(18)F]FDG PET/CT) technique should not be used as the method of choice in brain tumour diagnosis. Therefore, the brain region can be omitted during stan...

description According to the international societies’ recommendations, the 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ([(18)F]FDG PET/CT) technique should not be used as the method of choice in brain tumour diagnosis. Therefore, the brain region can be omitted during standard [(18)F]FDG PET/CT scanning. We performed comprehensive literature research and analysed results from 14,222 brain and torso [(18)F]FDG PET/CT studies collected in 2010–2020. We found 131 clinically silent primary and metastatic brain tumours and 24 benign lesions. We concluded that the brain and torso [(18)F]FDG PET/CT study provides valuable data that may support therapeutic management by detecting clinically silent primary and metastatic brain tumours.
