Abstract

Since the nineties positron emission tomography (PET) has been increasingly used in clinical diagnostics in the area of oncology, cardiology, and neurology/psychiatry in Germany. As the use of PET requires a complex and expensive infrastructure, analysis of the cost-effectiveness of PET compared to common diagnostic methods is becoming increasingly important. This article summarizes and discusses the results of a report on cost-effectiveness studies on PET.

Keywords: Cost-effectiveness; HTA report; Keywords Positron-emission-tomography.
