Brain findings on FDG PET-MRI body sequences that include the head
Conclusions FDG PET-MRI imaging is a rapidly evolving modality that is most commonly employed for cancer evaluation. The standardized base of skull to mid thigh imaging may miss many important pathologies that are discovered even with MRI body sequences. We propose that PET-MRI body sequences that include the head may show added value in the management of patients.
