Role of 18 F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography in Predicting the Pathologic Response to Preoperative Chemoradiation Therapy in Patients With Resectable T3 Pancreatic Cancer
2013
Background
The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in combination with computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) could correctly predict the pathologic response to preoperative chemoradiation therapy (CRT) for resectable pancreatic cancer.
