Tomografía por emisión de positrones con 18F-fluorodesoxiglucosa en la evaluación preoperatoria de lesiones de vesícula biliar sospechosas de malignidad. Utilidad diagnóstica e impacto clínico

FDG-PET accurately diagnoses malignancy or benignity of suspicious gallbladder lesions, with the addition of its capacity to identify unsuspected metastatic disease. PET-CT improves the diagnostic accuracy of the procedure, due to the metabolic-structural complementarity of their information. The SUVmax has a complementary value added to the visual analysis.
