简要总结
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography, may help find and diagnose cancer. It is not yet known whether standard diagnostic procedures are more effective when given with or without fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography in finding cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography given together with standard diagnostic procedures to see how well it works compared with standard diagnostic procedures alone in finding cancer in patients with a blood clot in a vein.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Demonstrate the efficacy, in terms of increased numbers of cancer diagnoses, of PET-CT with 18-FDG in patients with idiopathic venous thromboembolism.
Secondary
- Assess the risk of cancer detected at 1 year.
- Assess whether PET allows earlier detection of cancer.
- Evaluate survival.
