چکیده انگلیسی
To improve the accuracy of chemoradiation therapy in anal cancer patients PET/CT is frequently used in the planning of radiation therapy. A systematic review was performed to assess impact on survival, quality of life, symptom score, change in target definition and treatment intention. Systematic literature searches were conducted in Medline, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and Centre for Reviews and Dissemination. Ten cross-sectional studies were identified. No data were available on survival or quality of life. The summary estimate of the proportion of patients in which PET/CT had an impact on the target definition, was 23% (95% CI 16;33). The corresponding summary estimate of a change in treatment intent from curative to palliative was 3% (95% CI 2;6). Almost one in four patients had a change in target definition, which supports the use of PET/CT in radiation therapy planning, but the consequence regarding survival and quality of life is still uncertain.
