Nineteen cases with synchronous multiple primary cancers studied by (18)F-FDG PET/CT.
CONCLUSION: In our center, SMPC most commonly involved the gastrointestinal tract and adenocarcinomas were the most common pathology type. (18)F-FDG PET/CT was useful in the diagnosis of SMPC and the ΔSUVmax indicates different pathological origins of the synchronous cancers.
