Abstract

Imaging studies provide essential diagnostic information in the care of cancer patients. Unfortunately, radiographic findings are not always diagnostic and thus an alternative approach with biomarkers has been suggested as part of the diagnostic evaluation. This discussion focuses on integration of biomarkers with imaging in the effort to guide patient management.
