Kopf-Hals-Tumoren

  • Chapter
PET/CT-Atlas

Zusammenfassung

Die Unterteilung von Kopf-Hals-Tumoren erfolgt in maligne Tumoren des oberen Aerodigestivtrakts, Malignome der Halsweichteile, Malignome der Haut im Kopf-Hals-Bereich und seltene Entitäten. Die Diagnostik dieses Erkrankungskomplexes und des CUP-Syndroms profitiert von der onkologischen PET/CT. Der hieraus gewonnene Informationsgewinn kommt Patienten, HNO-Ärzten, Onkochirurgen, Radiologen und Strahlentherapeuten aus heutiger Sicht gleichermaßen zugute. Zwei zentrale Fragestellungen werden für die PET/CT angegeben: zum einen der Nachweis des Primärtumors bei klinisch nachgewiesenen Lymphknotenmetastasen (CUP-Tumor), zum anderen der Nachweis der Lymphknotenmetastasierung zur weiteren Therapieplanung. Für die Therapiekontrolle ist es von entscheidender Bedeutung, den histologisch differenzierten Tumorstatus so exakt wie möglich zu bestimmen.
