Background And Objective: We determined the utility of the (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)-computerized tomography (CT) in the localization of the primary tumor in patients with tumor of unknown origin (TUO).
Patients And Method: (18)F-FDG PET-CT scans, performed between November 2006 and November 2010, in search for the primary tumor in patients with TUO, were retrospectively evaluated. Patients underwent a standard PET-CT, 50-60minutes after intravenous injection of 296-370MBq (18)F-FDG.
