The past 25 years have seen significant growth in the role of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in musculoskeletal oncology. Substantiative advances in technical capability and image quality have been paralleled by increasingly widespread clinical adoption and implementation. It is now recognized that PET/CT is useful in diagnosis, staging, prognostication, response assessment, and surveillance of bone and soft tissue sarcomas, often providing critical information in addition to conventional imaging assessment. As individualized, precision medicine continues to evolve for patients with sarcoma, PET/CT is uniquely positioned to offer additional insight into the biology and management of these tumors.
