Correlation of 18‐fluorodeoxyglucose uptake values on PET–CT scan with histological prognostic markers in breast cancer

Abstract: Background Positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET‐CT) scan utilizes 18‐fluorodeoxyglucose (18‐FDG), based on the principle of higher glycolytic activity and reduced glucose‐6‐phosphatase levels in cancer cells. This imaging modality is usually advised in the metastatic evaluation of stage III breast cancer patients. The correlation of maximum standard uptake values of primary lesion with different pathological and molecular markers has not been studied extensively. Methods Retrospective analysis… Show more

“…It provides essential contributions to the clinical practice in therapy planning, assessing therapy response and recurrence determination [5,7]. There are many studies in the literature focused on the relationship between SUVmax and histopathological-immunohistochemical factors in BC [8][9][10][11][12]. The relationship between histopathological-immunohistochemical factors and PET/CT parameters such as metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) are also recently mentioned in the literature [13].…”
