Abstract
In our study 494 patients with recurrent lung, breast, gastrointestinal malignancies and lymphomas were examined using combined positron-emission and computed scanner. During this investigation patterns of metastases of different tumors were determined. It was shown that positron-emission and computed tomography can provide more effective determination of recurrent disease in patients with thoracic and gastrointestinal malignancies. Combined positron-emission and computed tomography must be used for monitoring these patients for opportune development of recurrences.
