Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This study was aimed 1) to investigate the predictive value of FDG PET/CT (fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography) for histopathologic response and 2) to explore the results of FDG PET/CT by molecular phenotypes of breast cancer patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS: Seventy-eight stage II or III breast cancer patients who received neoadjuvant...
