Abstract
18F-FDG-PET and PET/CT demonstrated to be useful diagnostic imaging methods in the assessment of pleural abnormalities in cancer patients, nevertheless possible sources of false-negative and false-positive results should be kept in mind. The literature focusing on the use of 18F-FDG-PET and PET/CT in this setting remains still limited and prospective studies are needed.
