Surgical treatment for mediastinal lymph node involvement in non-small cell lung cancer
(NSCLC) will not have positive impact on survival. The present study aimed at investigating …

Background: In this study, we aimed to investigate the lymph node standardized uptake
value (SUVmax)/mass SUVmax ratio for the determination of sensitivity of positron emission …

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of PET and CT features of
mediastinal metastatic lymph nodes on F-18 FDG PET/CT and to determine the diagnostic …

BACKGROUND: Positron emission tomography (PET) scans often help direct biopsies of
mediastinal lymph nodes in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the …

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between mediastinal
lymph node metastasis based on fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18 F-FDG) PET/computed …

Positron emission tomography/integrated computed tomography (PET/CT) provides the most
accurate imaging modality for preoperative lung cancer staging. However, the diagnostic …

Background To evaluate the factors affecting the maximum standardized uptake value
(SUVmax) of metastatic lymph nodes in different histological types of non-small cell lung …

Background: This study aims to evaluate the accuracy rate of integrated positron emission
tomography (PET) with 18F-flouro-2-deoxy-Dglucose and computed tomography (CT) in …

Aim The study aimed to determine a prognostic value of primary tumor volume measured on
the basis of integrated positron emission tomography–computerized tomography (PET–CT) …

Objective To study the FDG SUVmax cutoff values in detection of metastases in mediastinal
lymph nodes (MLN) and hilar/intralobar lymph nodes (HILN) in pre-operative patients with …
