Abstract
Preoperative SUVmax determined from FDG-PET/CT images reflected the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy after complete resection in patients with pathologic stage T1b-2aN0M0 lung adenocarcinoma. Indications for postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy among patients with lung adenocarcinoma might be more precisely determined using SUVmax derived from FDG-PET/CT images together with tumor size.
