primary hepatic malignancy after hepatocellular carcinoma, there are limited data available …

Abstract Background and Aim: 18F‐Fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐d‐glucose positron emission
tomography (18FDG‐PET) is promising for diagnosis and treatment of various malignancies …

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic role of
metabolic parameters of FDG PET/CT in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma …

Objective. To meta‐analyze published data about the diagnostic accuracy of fluorine‐18‐
