Abstract

Objective: The efficacy of preoperative F-18-fluoro-D-glucose (F-18-FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) in endometrium cancer is controversial. We examined the efficacy of PET-CT and the association between maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) and prognostic factors in endometrial cancer.
