Potential value of dual-time-point 18F-FDG PET compared with initial single-time-point imaging in differentiating malignant from benign pulmonary nodules

We performed a meta-analysis to assess the potential value of dual-time-point (DTP) imaging as compared with initial single-time-point (STP) scanning with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET in differentiating malignant from benign single pulmonary nodules. Data on the performance of DTP 18F-FDG PE
