Research has shown that 60 percent of those with the disease respond to hor- monal therapy. The problem for doctors is determining which patients will respond and which ones need more aggressive treatment, such as chemotherapy. Discerning between the two groups and prescribing the right care can have a profound impact on the quality of a patient's life. But how should doctors make these decisions? Researchers at the School of Medi- cine, in collaboration with researchers at the University of Illinois, used imaging technology called positron emission tomography (PET) to help diagnose breast tumors that are likely to respond to hormone therapy in women with spreading, or metastatic, disease. The study was supported by the National Institutes of Health.
