High metabolic tumor volume and total lesion glycolysis are associated with lateral lymph node metastasis in patients with incidentally detected thyroid carcinoma

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate whether total lesion glycolysis (TLG) and metabolic tumor volume (MTV) measured by (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) could predict the aggressiveness and lymph node metastasis (LNM)...
