Contents

The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of O-(2-18F-fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (18F-FET) PET for differentiating local recurrent brain metastasis from radiation necrosis after radiation therapy because the use of contrast-enhanced MRI for this issue is often difficult. Methods: Thirty-one patients (mean age ± SD, 53 ± 11 y) with single...
