Prognostic Value of the Preoperative Tumor-to-Blood Pool Standardized Uptake Value Ratio Derived From FDG-PET/CT in Distal Bile Duct and Ampullary Cancers.
PURPOSE This study investigated the prognostic value of the preoperative tumor-to-blood pool standardized uptake value ratio (TBR) on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for distal bile duct and ampullary cancers.
