1 Part I: NCCN Practice Guidelines Tabular Summary (DD 3/20/13) PET and NCCN guidelines were reviewed on 3/20/2013 for utilization of PET and (available at: This tabular summary lists all of the practice guidelines, and indicates whether or not 18 F- fluorodeoyglucose (FDG) PET and are included. The NCCN terminology corresponds to the terminology used by CMS (ie diagnosis/staging = initial treatment strategy; therapy monitoring/recurrence = subsequent treatment strategy; surveillance not recognized by CMS as an indication). The NCCN wording and restrictions are stated. The language is not uniform and varies from panel to panel making the guidelines. NCCN is trying to address this but each guideline panel is independent from the others.
