Objective To evaluate the detection ability of 18 F-FDG PET/CT for identifying high-risk lesions (high-risk adenomas and adenocarcinoma) from incidental focal colorectal 18 F-FDG uptake foci combining maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) and localized colonic wall thickening (CWT). The secondary o...
