18F-FDG PET/CT guided salvage radiotherapy strategies for lymph-nodal relapses in gynecological cancers: SBRT vs ENRT

Research Article

To identify outcome differences between extended nodal radiotherapy (ENRT) with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), performed with advanced radiotherapy techniques, both of which were 18F-Fluoro-Deoxy-Glucose (FDG) PET/CT guided, for lymph-node (LN) relapses of gynecological tumors, and to identify the most important determining factors.
