Integrated Dedicated Liver <sup>18</sup> F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Correlations of Positron Emission Tomography with Diffusion-Weighted Imaging and Morphological Findi
Higher <sup>18</sup>F-FDG uptake was observed in infiltrative lesions compared with noninfiltrative ones. The majority of malignant tumor thrombi exhibited increased <sup>18</sup>F-FDG uptake. Although the ability of <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET to detect HCC lesions is limited by the variable uptake in HCC tumors, it proves valuable in assessing tumor aggressiveness.
