2.Staging
Accuratestagingatthetimeofdiagnosisisthemost
importantfactorfortreatmentplanninganddetermination
ofprognosis[8].Oneattractivefeatureof18F-FDGPETas
amodalityforinitialTNMstagingisthatitcoversmost
ofthebodywithinasinglestudy.PETthereforeprovides
informationontheprimarytumor,nodalmetastases,distant
metastases,andpotential2ndprimarycarcinomas.A
literaturesurveyontheuseof18F-FDGPETinheadand
neckcancer(HNC)comparedtoCTindicatesthatPEThas

versus73%)forstagingcancer[9].AdditionofPET/CTto
initialstagingofpatientswithHNChasalsobeenshownto
haveameasurableimpactonthetreatmentselection[10,11].
2.1.PrimaryTumor.Numerousreportsoninitialstaging
haveshownthat18F-FDGPETisatleastassensitiveasMRI
orCTindetectingtheprimarytumor[3,7,10–17].Thisis
relatedtothefactthatsmallerorsubmucosalmalignancies
maybedifficulttodistinguishfromadjacenttissueson
anatomicalimaging.Abettersensitivityof18F-FDGPET

hasbeenshowninoralcavitycancer[18,19].However,
thecurrentpracticeisnotinfavorofutilizing18F-FDG
PETforlocalstagingofallnewlydiagnosedheadandneck
squamouscellcarcinoma(HNSCC).Thisisduetothe
higheranatomicresolutionofMRIandcontrastenhanced
multisliceCTcomparedto18F-FDGPET.Nevertheless,in
arecentstudybyBaeketal.including40patientswith
oralcavitycanceranddentalartifactsonCTorMRI,
itwasdemonstratedthat18F-FDGPET/CTcanprovide
moreusefulclinicalinformationandhighersensitivity,
particularlyindeeptumors,comparedtoCTandMR.The
diagnosticperformanceforthedetectionoftheprimary
tumorsintheoralcavitywas96.3%forPET/CT,77.8%for
CT,and85.2%forMRI[20].
2.2.NodalMetastases.Nodalstaginghasasignificantimpact

isfoundinapproximately50%ofthepatientsatthetime
ofprimarydiagnosis[6,22].Severalreportshaveverified
that18F-FDGPEThasahighersensitivityandspecificity

Sch¨oderandYeung,anaveragesensitivityof87%–90%anda

asensitivityof61%–97%andspecificityof21%–100%were
