Abstract
- Maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) is a marker of tumor glucose metabolism detected by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PETcomputed tomography (PETCT) and reflects tumor aggressiveness. The aim of the study was to evaluate the value of SUVmaxin differentiating benign from malignant solitary pancreatic lesions and explore the correlation between SUVmaxand tumor proliferative activity.
