Optimized FDG-PET/MRI protocol reveals metabolic predictors of long-term survival in pancreatic cancer patients
Metabolic indices from abbreviated dual time-point FDG-PET/MRI can differentiate pancreatic malignancy from pancreatitis and predict outcomes, outperforming other indices. This protocol offers a valuable diagnostic tool for characterizing pancreatic lesions and predicting outcomes based on imaging criteria.
