Abstract: |
Purpose Liver demonstrates a heterogeneous 18F fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18F-FDG) uptake pattern and sometimes shows an abnormally increased uptake even when there is no malignant tissue. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships of liver 18F-FDG uptake as related to physical factors, fatty liver, blood glucose (BG), and other biochemical data. |
