Metabolic activity via 18F-FDG PET/CT is predictive of microsatellite instability status in colorectal cancer

Abstract Purpose Identification of microsatellite instability high (MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC) is crucial for screening patients most likely to benefit from immunotherapy. We aim to investigate whether the metabolic characteristics is related to MSI status and can be used to predict the MSI-H CR...
