Core Tip |
An unexpected focal thyroid incidentaloma (TI) is detected on various medical imaging studies. The lesion may harbor a risk of malignancy and the differentiation between malignant and benign disease is important. Standardized uptake value (SUV) is often measured for metabolism on F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT). Parameters of FDG PET-CT, including SUV, have been studied for many years in the fields of nuclear medicine and oncology. We conducted the present study to distinguish malignant TI from benign disease with an analysis of FDG PET-CT parameters. |
