In cervical cancer (CC), fluorine18-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has been proven to be beneficial for patient management. Positron emission tomography/CT is useful in pretreatment evaluation due to the ability to evaluate disease extent and to assess regional lymph nodes as well as distant sites for metastases. Positron emission tomography/CT has an impact on treatment planning as well as it is incorporated in radiation therapy planning, resulting in more appropriate and effective treatment with less cost and radiation dose to normal tissues. Positron emission tomography/CT is used to predict early treatment response and to assess treatment response after completion of concurrent chemoradiation therapy. Positron emission tomography/CT has been used for surveillance after treatment as well as for restaging in suspected recurrent or metastatic disease. Qualitative PET/CT imaging findings as well as quantitative parameters such as maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) are useful to predict prognosis and clinical outcome. Moreover, PET imaging using other radiotracers to detect and quantify hypoxia may help to identify aggressive tumors and predict treatment outcome even though it is not widely clinical used. Positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) instruments are now available, which may potentially improve evaluation of primary tumors and metastatic sites given the improved soft tissue contrast resolution of MRI relative to CT. This article reviews the role of 18F-FDG PET/CT, hypoxia agent PET/CT, and 18F-FDG PET/MRI in the management of patients with CC.
