ABSTRACT
@#Positron emission tomography (PET) has been used for the diagnosis of gynecological malignancies and is superior to conventional imaging tools in detecting metastatic lesions, diagnosing local recurrence, and evaluating treatment outcome. Compared with the in vitro assessment of tumor biopsy materials, PET imaging has advantages in measuring <i>in vivo</i> tumor behaviors, characterizing overall tumor burden, and capturing the phenotypic heterogeneity of tumors. PET imaging provides precision data on tumor staging and recurrence through integrating the anatomic and functional data of metabolic features, thereby achieving the high-quality assessment of gynecological malignancies. This article reviews the advances in the application of PET imaging in the diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, and endometrial carcinoma.
