Özet

The objective of this study is to determine whether 2-deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-d-glucose with positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging and quantitative PET parameters can predict outcome and differentiate patients with limited disease (LD) from extensive disease (ED) in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
