PDFAbstract
Objective To investigate the application value of 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging in the judgement of recurrence or metastatic lesions in patients with breast cancer after surgery. Methods 79 cases of patients with suspected recurrence or metastatic lesions after breast cancer surgery in the hospital were selected as the research objects. Patients with breast cancer of which the primary lesions were confirmed by surgery and pathology all underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging examination which were compared with pathologic follow-up. Results Taking the results of pathological follow-up as the gold standard, the accuracy, specificity and sensitivity of 18F-FDG PET / CT in detection of recurrence or metastatic lesions were 94.94%, 94.62% and 95.65% while in the detection of lymph node metastasis were 91.52%, 97.46% and 79.48%, the consistency of which with pathological follow-up diagnosis was high. Conclusion 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging is of high value in the diagnosis of recurrence or metastasis of breast cancer.
