Core Tip Our report shows that response monitoring using [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) acquired together with low dose computed tomography has potential in targeted treatment for non-small cell lung cancer and can be performed as early as 1-2 wk after initiation of treatment. Patients with substantial decrease of metabolic activity during epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors treatment will probably benefit from continued treatment. Refining FDG-PET response criteria may help the clinician to decide on continuation or discontinuation of targeted treatment.
