000134992 5203_ $$aIntroduction: Although PET/CT is effective for staging HNSCC, its impact on patient management is somewhat controversial. For this reason, we considered it necessary to carry out a study in order to verify whether PET/CT helps to improve the prognosis and treatment in patients. This study was designed to address the impact of PET-FDG imaging when used alongside CT in the staging and therapeutic management of patients with HNSCC.
Material and methods: Data was collected from 169 patients diagnosed with HNSCC with both CT and PET/CT (performed within a maximum of 30 days of each other). It was evaluated whether discrepancies in the diagnosis of the two imaging tests had impacted the treatment.
Results: The combined use of CT and PET/CT led to a change in the treatment of 67 patients, who represented 39.7% of the sample. In 27.2% of cases, it entailed a change in the type of treatment which the patient received. In 3.0% of the cases, using both diagnostic tests led to modifications of the therapeutic intention of our patients.
Conclusions: Using PET/CT in addition to the conventional imaging method in staging resulted in more successful staging and more appropriate therapeutic decision-making.
