Additional Value of FDG-PET/MRI Complementary to Sentinel Lymphonodectomy for Minimal Invasive Lymph Node Staging in Patients with Endometrial Cancer: A Prospective Study

Additional Value of FDG-PET/MRI Complementary to Sentinel Lymphonodectomy for Minimal Invasive Lymph Node Staging in Patients with Endometrial Cancer: A Prospective Study

Background: Lymph node metastases (LNM) are rare in early-stage endometrial cancer, but a diagnostic systematic lymphadenectomy (LNE) is often performed to achieve reliable N-staging. Therefore, this prospective study aimed to evaluate the benefit of [18F]-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/MRI complement...
