In vitro measurement of glucose uptake after radiation and cetuximab treatment in head and neck cancer cell lines using 18F-FDG, gamma spectrometry and PET/CT.

In conclusion, a novel yet reliable method for the measurement of intracellular 18F-FDG via GS has been developed, and our results indicate that 18F-FDG uptake is associated with radiation and cetuximab response in HNSCC. PMID: 31620196 [PubMed]
