Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate an imaging approach using computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), technetium-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy (99mTc pertechnetate scintigraphy), gallium-67 scintigraphy (67Ga scintigraphy) and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET).
