[F]FDG PET/CT: Lung Nodule Evaluation in Patients Affected by Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) is generally characterized by low-FDG avidity, and [F]FDG-PET/CT is not recommended to stage the primary tumor. However, its role to assess metastases is still unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of [F]FDG-PET/CT in correctly identifying RCC lung metastases using histology as the standard of truth.
