SSTR PET/CT for skull base low-grade meningioma: a critical tool for accurate gross tumor volume delineation in radiotherapy?
Combining MRI and PET/CT improves GTV delineation in low-grade skull base meningiomas, as PET/CT can reveal regions missed by MRI, which may slightly underestimate tumor size. This multimodal imaging approach enhances consensus and supports its role in radiotherapy planning. Standardized protocols and technical integration remain key future goals.
