Research Abstract |
We assessed the effectiveness of PET imaging for early evaluation of therapeutic effect of molecular targeting agent for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). ^<11>C-acetate (AC) PET showed high uptake in most of the metastatic tumor sites, unless the tumor is less than 1 cm. The sensitivity of FDG PET for these mRCC was lower than AC PET. Our study demonstrated that AC PET may be a possible imaging option for assessing the early therapeutic effect of molecular targeting agent for mRCC.
