[18 F]-Fluoroestradiol PET (FES-PET) and [18 F] Flurodeoxyglucose PET (FDG-PET) Imaging May Aid in Managing Therapy in Patients with Metastatic Lobular Breast Cancer
Our findings suggest that both FES-PET and FDG-PET can identify metastatic ILC and be useful in detecting the pattern and extent of disease. The imaging combination provides additional information for prognosis and clinical decision making, balancing suitability for endocrine therapy and aggressiveness/indolence of disease.
