18F-FAPI and 18F-FDG PET/CT in Patients With Various Types of Cancer

Overview

FAP is overexpressed in the cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) of 90% epithelial carcinomas. Currently, 68Ga-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) has shown promising diagnostic value in many types of tumors. However, there are currently no studies on head-to-head comparison of diagnosis value of various types of cancer in 18F-FAPI and 18F-FDG PET/CT. Therefore, we conducted a prospective study to investigate the value of 18F-FAPI PET/CT in various types of cancer, and compare it with 18F-FDG PET/CT.
