High standardized uptake values of 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging but not MRI correlates to pathology findings in patients with cervical cancer.
CONCLUSION: An increased SUVmax suggests lymph node metastases or distant metastases, low differentiation and FIGO stage III-IV. A low negative correlation was observed between the SUVmax and ADCmin, while we observed no correlation between the ADCmin and the clinical pathological characteristics of cervical cancer.
