Non- 18 F-2-Fluoro-2-Deoxy-d-Glucose PET/Computed Tomography in Gynecologic Oncology: An Overview of Current Status and Future Potential.
PET Clinics 2018 April
The current status and future potential targets of non-18 F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT) in 3 major gynecologic malignancies are discussed. Estrogen receptor-based 16alpha-18 F-fluoro-17beta-estradiol (18 F-FES) PET/CT has been investigated in (a) Uterine malignancies (both endometrial and myometrial pathologies) and (b) ovarian carcinoma. For uterine tumors, FDG/FES standardized uptake value and/or uptake ratio showed a positive correlation with malignant transformation (ie, endometrial carcinoma and uterine sarcoma) and higher malignant grades, whereas higher 18 F-FES uptake was documented in benign pathologies (ie, endometrial hyperplasia and leiomyoma). For epithelial ovarian carcinomas, 18 F-FES PET/CT can predict the response to antiestrogen therapy in platinum-resistant cases.
