Tumor Metabolism and Perfusion in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Pretreatment Multimodality Imaging With 1H Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI, and [18F]FDG-PET

Pretreatment multimodality imaging using 1H-MRS, DCE-MRI, and [18F]FDG PET is feasible in HNSCC patients with nodal metastases. Additionally, combined DCE-MRI and [18F]FDG PET parameters were predictive of short-term response to treatment.
