FDG PET texture indices as imaging biomarkers for epidermal growth factor receptor mutation status in lung adenocarcinoma

Abstract Identifying the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status is important for the optimal treatment of patients with EGFR mutations. We investigated the relationship between 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) texture indices and EGFR mutation status i...
