Abstract
The authors have conducted an exploratory study in the field of application of positron emission tomography in molecular imaging. The main areas of application of the method and its advantages and limitations are identified and described according to the literature data. Conclusions have been drawn regarding the informative value of the radiation diagnostic method that in one study allows assessing the stage of the disease and obtaining an image of the primary tumor and regional and distant metastases, including previously unforeseen ones, which often radically changes the patient’s management tactics.
