tromero@gucancer.comDual-Time Point (DTP) FDG PET CT for the Post-Treatment Assessment of Head and Neck Tumors Following Definitive Chemoradiation Therapy
Description:
This trial studies how well standard and delayed fludeoxyglucose F-18 (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) given after standard radiation and chemotherapy works in assessing patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/CT, use radioactive material, such as fludeoxyglucose F-18, to find and diagnose head and neck tumors and may help to find out how far the disease has spread.
