When MRI is equivocal, look beyond anatomy.
MRI provides detailed anatomical information. FET PET evaluates amino acid transport and tumor metabolism, adding biological information that can help distinguish recurrent or progressive glioma from treatment-related change. The findings are interpreted alongside MRI and other clinical evaluations.
MRI
Anatomical detail. Post-treatment findings may be equivocal.
FET PET
Amino acid uptake. Complementary biological information about metabolically active tumor.
Clinical indications & considerations
For referring physicians evaluating suspected recurrent or progressive glioma, particularly when post-treatment MRI findings are uncertain.
Equivocal post-treatment MRI
Complementary imaging when MRI findings are indeterminate and the care team needs more information to guide the next step.
Recurrence or treatment effect?
Support for distinguishing recurrent tumor from treatment-related change, in conjunction with other diagnostic evaluations.
Collaborative treatment planning
Discuss assessment of metabolically active tumor and questions about preoperative or radiation therapy planning with our physician team.
FET PET complements MRI and clinical assessment. The referring physician and imaging team determine whether the study is appropriate for the individual patient.
Collaborative care. Clear next steps.
Refer a patient or discuss a case.
Refer a patient for FET PET or speak with our team about an equivocal MRI. Please include the diagnosis, treatment history and recent MRI reports with the referral.
