Combined Use of 18F-FDG PET/CT, DW-MRI, and DCE-MRI in Treatment Response for Preoperative Chemoradiation Therapy in Locally Invasive Rectal Cancers
Abstract
We investigated if 18F-FDG PET/CT, DW-MRI, and DCE-MRI are able to predict preoperative chemoradiation therapy (CRT) response in patients with T3-4 rectal adenocarcinomas. MRI and PET/CT scans were performed within 1 week, at baseline, early midtreatment (2 weeks of CRT), and posttreatment (6 weeks after completing CRT). Responders (n = 4) and nonresponders (n = 4) were defined according to tumor regression grade by histology. Only SUVmax (P =...
