The Role of Positron Emission Tomography for the Management of Sinonasal Malignancies: A Systematic Review

CONCLUSIONS: In general, and across all types of sinonasal malignancies, PET scan yielded positive results regarding detection and initial staging. It was also considered as the modality of choice for detection of distant metastases, except in the case of sinonasal lymphoma. PET scan's main limit resides in its inability to detect lesions in or close to the metabolic activity of the brain.PMID:37229633 | DOI:10.1177/19458924231177854
