Abstract
18-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18-FDG PET) has been investigated
for the diagnosis and staging of gastrointestinal malignancies including pancreatic
adenocarcinoma. The aim of this study was to examine the clinical usefulness of 18-FDG
PET in the diagnosis and follow-up evaluation of patients with periampullary neoplasms.
