Purpose: We performed a retrospective analysis to evaluate the usefulness of positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings in the classification and management of anterior mediastinal tumors.
Methods: Between 2006 and 2015, 105 patients with anterior mediastinal tumor received PET/CT. F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG)-PET images were obtained 60 minutes after the injection of F-FDG.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between histological invasiveness and the computed tomography (CT) value and size in pure ground-glass nodules (GGNs) to determine optimal "follow-up or resection" strategies.
Methods: Between 2001 and 2014, 78 resected, pure GGNs were retrospectively evaluated. The maximum diameter and CT value of pure GGNs were measured using a computer graphics support system.
