The Contribution of [18]F-fluoro-2-deoxy-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography to the diagnosis and staging of signet-ring cell carcinoma of the stomach

Abstract

Background: Signet ring cell carcinomas (SRCC) have been among the most common histological types of gastric cancer. In recent years, [18]F-fluoro-2-deoxy-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ([18]F-FDG-PET/CT) has been very useful for
