背景/目标：我们评估了[F-18]-氟-2-脱氧-D-葡萄糖（FDG）-正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描（PET/CT）功能成像在头颈部鳞状细胞癌（HNSCC）患者中识别淋巴结转移（ENE）的诊断价值。患者和方法：在这项研究中，94例接受FDG-PET/CT检查的HNSCC患者入选。我们记录了最大标准化摄取值（SUVmax），将结果与病理结果进行比较，并评估了使用SUVmax截止值对ENE的诊断性能。结果：在检查的566个解剖节段中，53个（9.4%）显示ENE。LN合并ENE组和不合并ENE组的SUVmax分别为6.67和1.64（p
Background/Aim: We evaluated the diagnostic value of functional imaging with [F-18]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the identification of extranodal extension (ENE) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Patients and Methods: In this study, 94 patients with HNSCC who underwent FDG-PET/CT were enrolled. We recorded the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), compared the results with pathologic findings, and evaluated the diagnostic performance of using a SUVmax cut-off value for ENE. Results: Of the 566 dissected levels examined, 53 (9.4%) exhibited ENE. The mean SUVmax of LN with and without ENE were 6.67 and 1.64, respectively (p
