简介
Objectives:
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecological malignancy. The 18 fluorine-fluorodeoxyglucose (18 F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) is used for initial staging, evaluating treatment response, and detecting recurrence. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of preoperative PET/CT in EC staging and determine the volumetric PET parameters that are accurate predictors of histopathological tumor characteristics.
Methods:
Preoperative PET/CT data of 66 patients with EC were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into low and high-risk groups according to the European Society for Medical Oncology criteria. The maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max), SUV mean, metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) of the primary lesion and pathological lymph nodes were noted. The International Federation of …
