Abstract

PET/CT is developing a major role in assessing colorectal cancer. The
information provided by PET/CT is likely to combine the best imaging
features of both modalities and become the gold standard for staging in
colorectal carcinoma.
PET/CT proved significantly more accurate in staging, restaging, and
detection of metastatic as well as recurrent colorectal cancer. PET/CT is
also useful for differentiating post-treatment changes from residual/
recurrent cancer and in monitoring tumor response to therapy
