摘要: PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value F-FDG PET/CT by predicting histopathological findings in pretransplant evaluation patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). PATIENTS AND METHODS 34 HCC who underwent liver transplantation were reviewed retrospectively. Visual and quantitative analysis (tumor standardized uptake values normalized background activity liver: SUVmax T/L) done. PET tumor characteristics compared histological (differentiation microvascular invasion). All followed up (mean, 12 months). RESULTS Ten showed tumoral greater than (PET+). Higher-grade more common F-FDG-avid group (P < 0.05). PET+ also invasion at explant pathology Only 1 patient developed early recurrence (4 months) an T/L 1.64. CONCLUSIONS is predictive for differentiation. This examination has a regarding after HCC.
