Follow-up of patients with superior vena cava syndrome by functional analysis of radionuclide venography.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Interobserver agreement in measuring positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) parameters is critical for head and neck cancer management. The purpose of this study is to assess the interobserver agreement when measuring the standardized uptake value (SUV) parameters and the diameter of pri...
