Cost-Effectiveness of Positron Emission Tomography in Recurrent Colorectal Cancer in Canada

Cost-Effectiveness of Positron Emission Tomography in Recurrent Colorectal Cancer in Canada

Several studies over the past decade have demonstrated that 2-fluoro-2-D-[18F] fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is more accurate than computed tomography (CT) for the staging of recurrent colorectal carcinoma. This study uses quantitative decision tree modeling and sensiti...
