Efficacy of Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography in Gastric Mucosa-associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma

Abstract

When gastric MALT lymphoma is large, when lesions are found using abdominal CT scans, and the macroscopic appearance of a lesion is that of a protruding tumor or erosive-ulcerative type of depressed tumor, there is a high probability that such patients may have a positive F-18 FDG PET/CT scan.
