Clinical significance of SUVmax on preoperative 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in patients who underwent R0-esophagectomy for esophageal cancer

The standardized uptake value (SUV) is a marker of tumor glucose metabolism, detected using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) and may reflect tumor aggressiveness. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of maximum SUV (SUVmax) of primary esopha...
