PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships among [F-18]fluorodeoxyglucose ([F-18]-FDG) uptake, Glut-1 and HK-II expressions, and grade of inflammation in resected lung lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty patients had undergone preoperative F-18-FDG-PET imaging and thoracotomy. For semi-quantitative analysis of F-18-FDG uptake, partial volume effect corrected maximum standardized uptake values (pSUVs) were calculated. Immunohistochemical staining was performed in resected specimens using anti-Glut-1, anti-HK-II, and anti-proliferative cellular nuclear antigen (PCNA) antibodies, and immunoreactivities were scored as G-, H-, and P-indexes on a five-point scale (0: 0%; 1: similar to 20%, 2: similar to 40%; 3: similar to 60%; 4: similar to 80%, and 5: similar to 100% percentages of strongly immunoreactive cells). Grade of inflammation was also evaluated. RESULTS: The malignant lesions had higher pSUV and higher G- and H-indexes than nonmalignant lesions. pSUVs correlated with the G- (p
