Predictive Value of <sup>18</sup>F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron-Emission Tomography Metabolic and Volumetric Parameters for Systemic Metastasis in Tonsillar Cancer

Predictive Value of <sup>18</sup>F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron-Emission Tomography Metabolic and Volumetric Parameters for Systemic Metastasis in Tonsillar Cancer

Although the prognosis of tonsillar cancer (human papillomavirus-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma) is improving, disease control failure (distant metastasis) still occurs in some cases. We explored whether several <sup>18</sup>F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron-emission to...
