Metabolic tumor burden on postsurgical PET/CT predicts survival of patients with gastric cancer
Abstract Background The prognostic value of postoperative 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) to patients with gastric cancer remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the prognostic value of whole body (WB) metabolic tumor burden (MTBWB)...
