Description

Simple SummaryFluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission computed tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) imaging is crucial for staging, restaging, and therapeutic response assessment in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. However, 18F-FDG is not specific for malignant lesions. Dual-time-point imaging has emerged as a promising tool to address this limitation. Our findings indicate that delayed PET/CT images significantly increased both sensitivity (87.7% vs.
