Abstract
Accurate nodal staging is of utmost importance in treatment planning for lung cancer. Integrated FDG-PET/CT is part of the routine staging in lung cancer, however, data concerning the predictive value of preoperative PET-SUVmax and other volume based PET metrics of the primary tumor on nodal upstaging are still limited. For this reason, we aimed to assess the impact of preoperative tumor SUVmax and other volume based PET parameters on nodal upstaging in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
