1
We succeeded in determining the breast cancer, metastases and the stage of the disease with a PET-CT examination after finding a swollen lymph node. Due to this fact the physician could initiate the therapy immediately.
2
Discovery of a difficultly recognizable thyroid cancer with PET-CT examination by a patient having colon cancer with lung metastasis. Based on the test results therapeutic method has been changed and as a result of this lung metastases regressed.
3
In the background of the swollen lymph node on the neck, tumorous metastasis was observed, but the initial site of the process, the primary tumor was not found. With PET-CT we successfully identified the primary tumor.
4
In case of a lymphoma patient during the CT examination performed after chemotherapy found a residual alteration, according to which the PET-CT examination showed active disease and due to this fact, a complementary radiation therapy was performed. On the images of the control PET-CT at the same site there was only scar tissue, the repeated PET-CT proved the success of the therapy.
