Abstract

[(18)F]Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET is a robust quantitative molecular imaging technique that complements available structural imaging techniques for the detection and characterization of malignancy. This article provides an overview of the utility and applications of FDG-PET for the evaluation of patients with thoracic malignancy.
