Résumé
Objective To explore the value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma. Methods Data were collected from 44 patients with cholangiocarcinoma who underwent PET/CT in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Shandong First Medical University from September 2017 to October 2020. All patients underwent upper abdominal CT and MRI and whole-body PET/CT. The diagnostic value of three examinations was compared for primary lesions, recurrent lesions, and regional lymph node metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma. Results There were no significant differences in the diagnostic sensitivity of CT, MRI, and PET/CT in the primary lesions and regional lymph node metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma (P > 0.05). There were significant differences in the diagnostic sensitivity of the three examinations for recurrent cholangiocarcinoma lesions (P < 0.05). Conclusion PET/CT has high diagnostic value for recurrent lesions of cholangiocarcinoma, but the three examinations showed no significant differences in the diagnostic sensitivity for primary lesions and regional lymph node metastasis.
