	abstract = {Recently, functional imaging such as fluorine-18 fludeoxyglucose integrated with computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) or difusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) represent an area of highly active research in oncology. DW-MRI is an advanced imaging modality that records the molecular diffusion of protons to further assess tissue carácter, providing the opportunity to differentiate post-treatment tumour recurrence from chemoradiotherapy-induced local tissue changes (1). In the case of PET/CT, besides providing useful diagnostic information regarding pretreatment staging (2,3) and post-treatment follow-up (4), intensity of FDG uptake is emerging as a valuable predictive factor regarding treatment outcome (5).},
