Diagnostic Accuracy of FDG‐PET‐CT in Dementia: Assessing False Negatives in Clinical Practice
FDG-PET-CT of the brain produces a notable proportion of false negatives in dementia workups, suggesting limitations in sensitivity. These findings indicate that FDG-PET-CT alone may not be sufficiently reliable for diagnostic use in clinical practice and should be complemented by additional diagnostic methods.
