Imaging Tumor Metabolism to Assess Disease Progression and Treatment Response.
Timm KN., Kennedy BWC., Brindle KM.
Changes in tumor metabolism may accompany disease progression and can occur following treatment, often before there are changes in tumor size. We focus here on imaging methods that can be used to image various aspects of tumor metabolism, with an emphasis on methods that can be used for tumor grading, assessing disease progression, and monitoring treatment response.
