A head-to-head comparison of

Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are complementary in staging of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The combination of MRI and functional imaging from PET in PET/MR is promising in NPC management. Diagnostic performance of PET/CT and PET/MR was compared in 46 patients with histologically confirmed NPC under different disease scenarios, including primary non-metastatic cases, primary metastatic cases, recurrence and/or metastasis after treatment, and post-treatment follow-up cases.
