Incorporation of PET Metabolic Parameters With Clinical Features Into a Predictive Model for Radiotherapy-Related Esophageal Fistula in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

PurposeTo determine whether the addition of metabolic parameters from fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) scans to clinical factors could improve risk prediction models for radiotherapy-related esophageal fistula (EF) in esophageal squamou...
