The value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in the initial diagnosis and in the locoregional staging of esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma is not fully established. However, 18F-FDG PET/CT is widely accepted as the best modality for identification of suspected metastases in staging of the disease. Results published in the literature suggest that 18F-FDG PET/CT may provide useful information for response assessment to neoadjuvancy and to differentiate responding and nonresponding tumors. We review the potential role of 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging in staging, restaging, and prognostic value after chemoradiation therapy in esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma.
