Performance profile of a FDG-PET cancer screening program for detecting gastric cancer: results from a nationwide Japanese survey
2014
Purpose
It has been reported that gastric cancer is the sixth most common cancer found during the 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) cancer screening program, which is defined as cancer screening of asymptomatic subjects using FDG-PET(/CT) (in combination with other screening tests or not). The aim of this study was to analyze the detection rate and the effectiveness of the FDG-PET cancer screening program at detecting gastric cancer between 2006 and 2009 in Japan.
