Abstract

The results of this study indicate that imaging gastric cancer with the proliferation marker (18)F-FLT is feasible. (18)F-FLT PET was more sensitive than (18)F-FDG PET, especially in tumors frequently presenting without or with low (18)F-FDG uptake, and may improve early evaluation of response to neoadjuvant treatment.
