Abstract
Background Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET)/computed tomography (CT) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI or DW-MRI) are tools for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. However, comparison of their diagnostic performance remains unknown. Purpose To indirectly compare the diagnostic value of DWI and FDG-PET/CT in the detection of pancreatic cancer. Material and Methods A literature search of PubMed,...
