摘要
In a prospective study 16 patients with cervical lymph node metastases from an occult tumor were analyzed by (F-18)FDG positron emission tomography (PET). The aim of this study was to locate the primary tumor. In 7 patients a localized increase in activity was seen on PET, with this site of activity histologically proven in 4 patients. No biopsies were taken in 3 patients in areas with a high risk of complications. In a follow-up procedure at 2-22 months after primary radiation therapy in the other 9 patients, no primary tumor has been identified to date.
