The primary NM staging of these 14 pts was negative with FDG-CDET in 7 cases (4 TN and 3 FN corresponding to an invasion of satellite lymph nodes in 2 cases and to a metastatic infracentimetric subdiaphragmatic lymph node in one case) and positive in 7 cases (7 TP corresponding to 10 foci), revealing in 4 cases a sub-diaphragmatic lymph node extension unknown prior to FDG-CDET. One pt referred for characterisation of an oesophageal lesion (failure of multiple biopsies) had an intense focus of FDG uptake in this area (TP confirmed by surgery). The overall sensitivity was 13/14 = 93% on a per patient basis and 21/25 = 84% on a per lesion basis. Specificity on a per lesion basis was 5/5 = 100%.</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> These first results, obtained in an indication of FDG not frequently evaluated even with dedicated PET systems, seem very promising, the oesophageal neoplastic lesions appearing to take up FDG with a high intensity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":80267,"journal":{"name":"Clinical positron imaging : official journal of the Institute for Clinical P.E.T","volume":"3 4","pages":"Page 168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1095-0397(00)00080-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77486634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
