To explore regional brain glucose metabolic abnormalities of pretreatment stage I/II extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) patients using positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-D-glucose integrated with computed tomography ( 18 F-FDG PET/CT) and assess its prognostic value.
