Pre-treatment prediction of early response to chemoradiotherapy by quantitative analysis of baseline staging FDG-PET/CT and MRI in locally advanced cervical cancer.
CONCLUSION: Although the predictive performance achieved in this small exploratory dataset was limited, these preliminary data suggest that parameters from baseline MRI and FDG-PET/CT (in particular pre-therapy tumor volume) may contribute to prediction of early response to cCRT in cervical cancer.
