Diagnostic value of PET/CT vs PET/MRI in gynecological malignancies of the pelvis: A meta-analysis
Clinical Imaging Dec 13, 2019
Virarkar M, et al. - In this meta-analysis of the literature, out of 30 studies pooled, nine were involved in order to contrast the diagnostic performance of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT compared with 18F-FDG PET/MRI for gynecological malignancies of the pelvis. In the gynecological malignancies on lesion level (44 vs 26) and patient-level analysis (28 vs 17), in comparison with PET/CT, PET/MRI had a slightly better diagnostic performance compared with 18F-FDG PET/CT. Nevertheless, no statistical significance was revealed by the disparities between results (P = 0.4 and 0.48, for PET/CT and PET/MRI, respectively).
