Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate correlations between the standardized uptake value of the biopsy site (BSUVmax) and levels of glucose transporter (GLUT)-1, GLUT-3 and hexokinase-II (HK-II), between BSUVmax and the Ki-67 proliferation index (MIB-1), and between BSUVmax and clinicopa...
