Abstract:
Primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) is an aggressive small cell malignancy. Apart from the central nervous system, they can arise from peripheral sites as well. Ovarian PNETs are extremely rare neoplasms. We here present a case of childhood ovarian PNET, where 18F-FDG PET/CT was efficiently used for staging and response evaluation.

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...
