PET/CT scan has been used as a tool for the diagnosis and management of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). It has been proven to be highly valuable for the imaging and management of patients with NPC with strengths in N and M staging as well as treatment planning and is recommended to be incorporated into the standard clinical assessment. Novel quantitative techniques such as the use of radiomics may provide valuable prognostic information.
