Prediction of Tumor Recurrence by ¹⁸F-FDG PET in Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Abstract

In this study, (18)F-FDG PET was an independent and significant predictor of tumor recurrence. In liver transplantation for HCC, (18)F-FDG PET can provide effective information on the prognosis for tumor recurrence and the selection of adequate candidates for liver transplantation.
