INTRODUCTION
Expand abstract
Only a minority of esophageal cancers demonstrates a pathological tumor response (pTR) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is often used for restaging after NAC and to assess response. Increasingly, it is used during therapy to identify unresponsive tumors and predict pTR , using avidity of the primary tumor alone. However, definitions of such metabolic tumor response (mTR) vary. We aimed t...
