Value of PET/MRI for assessing tumor resectability in NSCLC—intra-individual comparison with PET/CT

The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of positron emission tomography (PET)/MRI with PET/CT for determining tumor resectability of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Sequential trimodality PET/CT/MRI was performed in 36 patients referred with the clinical question of resectability assessment in NSCLC. PET/CT and PET/MR images including T1 weighted sequence (T1-Dixon) and respiration gated T2 weighted sequence...
