Evidence of fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) uptake corresponding with presence of primary lesion<br>Will Use regression techniques to examine the influence of prognostic variables on test characteristics. For each of the tests calculate sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative values and compare the performance of the two tests with risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals[Following surgery and review of histopathology: Baseline only];Evidence of FDG uptake corresponding with presence of distant disease including lymphatic spread<br>Will Use regression techniques to examine the influence of prognostic variables on test characteristics.
