Abstract
The negative effect of [18F]FMISO HV on permanent local tumour control supports the prognostic value of the pre-treatment [18F]FMISO HV. Making the assumption that variable [18F]FMISO uptake in different FaDu tumours which all have the same genetic background may serve as an experimental model of intratumoural heterogeneity, the data support the concept of dose-escalation with inhomogeneous dose distribution based on pre-treatment [18F]FMISO uptake. This result needs to be confirmed in other tumour models and using fractionated radiotherapy schedules.
