Abstract
This study explored the value of serial 18-fludeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) in predicting disease-free survival (DFS) in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation (NCRT) and surgery.We prospectively studied 46 patients with LARC who underwent NCRT and surgery. 18F-FDG-PET/CT scans were performed at three time-points before surgery (pre-NCRT-PET1, during NCRT-PET2 and following...
