It is shown that most tumors in children accumulate and retain FDG, allowing high-quality images of their distribution and pathophysiology, and the use of FDG-PET in the study of children with the more common malignancies and the less-common tumors is explored.

The relatively high PPV in patients with histologically proven high grade solid tumors, advanced stages of NHL and with nodular sclerosing, lymphocyte-rich and lymphocyte depleted subtypes of HL warrant a confirmation by biopsy, whereas the watch-and-wait approach can be used in other forms of childhood cancer patients with a positive FDG-PET/CT result in course of follow-up examinations.

FDG PET was superior to CT in detecting distant LN metastasis and to BS in detecting skeletal metastasis in neuroblastoma and might be eliminated in the evaluation of neuroblastomas when FDG PET is performed.

I-MIBG is superior for delineating primary tumor sites, and F-FDG PET could aid in discriminating inconclusive findings on bony metastatic NBL during follow-up.

The case of a 10‐month‐old female infant with a metastatic neuroblastoma which became MIBG‐negative at time of relapse is reported, and the potential utility of FDG‐PET as an alternative to follow up the residual disease at this stage is discussed.

Staging of childhood lymphoma using FDGPET shows differences compared with CT resulting in a different staging in 6 of 25 patients, and Prospective studies are required to evaluate the impact of these discrepancies on the clinical management of pediatric patients.

Specific advantages of MR include determination of resectability of hepatic tumors using MRI and MRA; staging of neuroblastoma in the bone marrow, lymph nodes, liver, and spinal canal; response of bilateral Wilms tumor and nephroblastomatosis; detection of pelvic tumors with sagittal sectioning, and peritoneal tumors with contrast enhancement.
