摘要
The role of Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) in the evaluation of various gynecologic malignancies in light of current available data is presented and illustrated with imaging examples, pearls, and common pitfalls. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT is being increasingly used in management of gynecologic malignancy and has useful applications in cervical, ovarian, and endometrial carcinoma. Sensitivity and specificity are superior compared with conventional imaging. However, there are limitations of which the reporting physician should be aware. This article introduces the available evidence and discusses the role of PET/CT in various gynecologic malignancies and highlights imaging pearls and potential pitfalls.
