Popis: F-FDG uptake of primary lesions (98.6% vs. 28.0%, P<0.001) and lymph nodes (50.0% vs. 6.0%, P<0.001), and higher standardized uptake value max of primary lesions (7.65±3.51 vs. 4.82±2.18, P=0.012). Among 65 patients who underwent gastrectomy, PET-CT positive lesions were found in patients with tumor size greater than 3 cm (86.4% vs. 9.5%, P<0.001), lesions detected by stomach CT (90.9% vs. 9.5%, P<0.001) and PET-CT lymph node positive lesions (4.8% vs. 31.8%, P=0.025). Among 31 patients with EGC, elevated types (type I and IIa) showed no difference of positive 18
