Roles of PET/Computed Tomography in the Evaluation of Neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma is one of the most common pediatric malignant tumors. Functional imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis, staging, and therapy response monitoring of neuroblastoma. Although metaiodobenzylguanidine scan with single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography remains the mainstay in functional imaging of the neuroblastomas, PET/CT has begun to show increased utility in this clinical setting.
