C11-Acetate PET/CT in Multiple Myeloma: Added Value to F18-Fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT for Staging and Response Assessment

Positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography using carbon-11 acetate (ACT PET/CT) may help detect lesions before treatment and evaluate response following therapy in patients with from multiple myeloma (MM). This study aimed to prospectively assess the clinical utility of ACT PET/CT in MM as compared to the commonly used F18-fluorodeoxyglucose(FDG).
