Feasibility of 11C-acetate in the Monitoring of Treatment Response Following Radiotherapy in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma
It is thought that PET of the abdomen with 11C Acetate will provide new information regarding
whether or not patient's have benefited from radiotherapy. To test this theory, the project
will evaluate the potential of 11C acetate to serve as an earlier and/or better signal of
treatment success.
