Imaging of renal cell carcinoma in patients with acquired cystic disease of the kidney: comparison 11 C-choline and FDG PET/CT with dynamic contrast-enhanced CT
Conclusion11C-choline-PET/CT was more sensitive to detect RCC in ACDK as compared to FDG-PET/CT and contrast-enhanced CT in our series. FDG-PET/CT may be limited for detecting clear-cell RCC, while CT may have difficulty with detection of ACD-associated RCC.
