PET/CT在分化型甲状腺癌诊疗中的应用
Application of PET/CT in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
摘要: 近年来甲状腺癌发病率在全球呈快速增长态势,尤其是分化型甲状腺癌(differentiated thyroid carcinoma, DTC)。目前对DTC的诊疗,提倡精准化、个体化及根据患者动态评估结果实时调整治疗及随访管理的策略。正电子发射计算机断层扫描仪(Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography, PET/CT)将核医学功能分子影像与计算机断层扫描(Computed Tomography, CT)的精细解剖影像完美结合,在肿瘤的临床特异性诊断及个体化精准治疗中发挥重要作用。但关于PET/CT在DTC诊疗中的应用价值,一直存在较多争议,本文结合国内外相关研究及进展对PET/CT在DTC中的应用情况进行综述。
Abstract: In recent years, the incidence of thyroid cancer has increased rapidly worldwide, particularly that of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). Current management of DTC emphasizes precision, individualization, and dynamic adjustment of treatment and follow-up strategies based on ongoing risk stratification and clinical evaluation. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), which combines functional molecular imaging with anatomical imaging, has demonstrated important value in the diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumors. By integrating metabolic or molecular information with precise anatomical localization, PET/CT provides useful imaging support for individualized clinical decision-making. However, the value of PET/CT in the diagnosis and management of DTC remains controversial. Based on relevant domestic and international studies, this review summarizes the current applications of PET/CT in DTC and discusses recent research advances, with the aim of providing a reference for its further clinical application in the management of DTC.
