摘要
The efficacy of fluorodeoxyglucose-PET (FDG-PET) in initial staging, monitoring response to therapy, and management of many types of cancer has been well documented. Relatively few reports have appeared in the literature describing the use of FDG-PET in urologic tumors. Substantial excretion of FDG through the kidneys interferes with the optimal assessment of urogenital structures and this partly accounts for the uncertainty of its role in these malignancies. This article summarizes the existing data regarding the clinical use of PET with FDG and other tracers in the management of prostate, renal, bladder, and testicular cancers.
