Abstract
Although the patient population in this study is small (n = 6), the findings suggest that PET/ CT scans may offer a low sensitivity in detection of primary tonsillar cancers. However, PET/CT scans still have a significant role in the detection of other unknown primary head and neck tumors. Technical reasons for this finding are discussed.
