18 F-FDG-PET/CT (F-FDG) appears to offer value for staging of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), according to the results of a recent small, single-institution study. 1 F-FDG reliably detected ...

“FDG-PET is generally considered as a useful metabolic evaluation tool, while it is also thought to have an emerging role for assessment of systemic therapy response.” “Results for malignant pleural ...

Prognostic significance of S100A4 expression in biliary tract cancers. Background: The role of F-18 FDG-PET/CT in gastric cancer is limited because of its low sensitivity. The sensitivity of F-18 ...
