Accuracy of 18F-FDG in Detecting Stage I Lung Adenocarcinomas According to IASLC/ATS/ERS Classification

Only a small number of studies have explored the clinicopathological features of pulmonary adenocarcinoma (PA) associated with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) false-negative (FN) results. Herein, we investigated the FDG-PET diagnostic performance by stratifying PAs according to International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer/American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society/American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society (IASLC/ATS/ERS) classification.
