Abstract
The change in SUV observed in head and neck cancer patients treated with chemoradiation shows the potential for using [18F]FLT PET images for identifying active bone marrow and monitoring changes due to radiation dose. Additionally, the change in [18F]FLT uptake observed in bone marrow for different weekly doses suggests potential dose thresholds for reducing bone marrow toxicity.
