Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the clinical utility of 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose PET and computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) in detecting recurrence and metastasis in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) who exhibit elevated levels of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA following treatment.
Methods: A total of 103 patients with NPC were studied retrospectively. All patients were in remission following initial treatment.

Purpose: The primary objective of this study was to explore the prognostic significance of serum cholinesterase (CHE) and metabolic parameters obtained from 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT) scans in patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted with 202 NSCLC patients. Serum CHE was evaluated alongside metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) derived from PET/CT scans.

Purpose: Prediction of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status and subtypes in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) based on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT) radiomics features.
Patients And Methods: Retrospective analysis of 201 NSCLC patients with 18F-FDG PET/CT and EGFR genetic testing was carried out. Radiomics features and clinical factors were used to construct a combined model for identifying EGFR mutation status.

Background: Immunotherapy and radiotherapy play crucial roles in the transformation therapy of locally advanced pancreatic cancer; however, the exploration of effective predictive biomarkers has been unsatisfactory. With the rapid development of radiomics, next-generation sequencing, and machine learning, there is hope to identify biomarkers that can predict the efficacy of transformative treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer through simple and non-invasive clinical methods. Our study focuses on using computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), gene mutations, and baseline carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199) to identify biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of transformative treatment.

Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, making it a challenge to noninvasively monitor immune infiltration. Metabolic reprogramming in cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is closely linked to immune status. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the ability of carbon-11 acetate (C-acetate) and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) PET/CT findings in predicting overall survival (OS) and immune infiltration in HCC patients.
