Oncological applications of positron emission tomography for evaluation of the thorax
J Thorac Imaging.

Abstract
Positron emission tomography is a powerful quantitative molecular imaging technique that is complementary to structural imaging techniques for purposes of disease detection and characterization. This review article will provide an overview of the applications of positron emission tomography for evaluation of patients with oncological diseases that may be encountered in the thorax.
