The Role of PET-CT-Guided Metabolic Biopsies in Improving Yield of Inconclusive Anatomical Biopsies: A Review of 5 Years in a Teaching Hospital

The Role of PET-CT-Guided Metabolic Biopsies in Improving Yield of Inconclusive Anatomical Biopsies: A Review of 5 Years in a Teaching Hospital

Tumour sampling is indispensable to diagnostic and therapeutic decision making. Thus, 18F-FDG PET/CT has the potential to accurately discriminate between viable and non-viable tissues due to its ability to characterise the metabolism of visible tissues.
