Abstract excerpt
To evaluate clinical values of clinicopathologic and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)-related parameters for prediction of v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutation in colorectal cancer (CRC) and to investigate their variability depending on C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. In total, 179 CRC patients who underwent PET/CT scans...
