AB 219Purpose: We investigated the use of 18F-FDG PET/CT in detecting distant metastases of esophageal squamous cell carcinomas. Materials and Methods: From July 2007 to December 2016, the materials of 63 cases of primary esophageal cancer with distant metastasis were analyzed. Compare the PET texture parameters between with and without distant metastasis group of esophageal cancer patients. Analyze the distribution of distant metastasis of esophageal cancer patients. Results: he SUVmax, TLG, SUVmean, MTV, SULpeak, Contrast, Entropy, Homogeneity, Dissimilarity, SRE, LRE, Coarseness, Busyness, Complexity, SZE, LZE, SNE and LNE were significant difference between esophageal cancer with distant metastasis and without distant metastases groups. Esophageal cancer distant metastasis included liver, lung, bone, brain, adrenal glands, kidney, soft tissue nodules, neck, abdomen and pelvic lymph node. Conclusions: 18F-FDG PET/CT was of great value in the evaluation of distant metastasis in the first diagnosis of esophageal carcinoma patients. 18F-FDG PET/CT texture analysis parameters had certain value in evaluating the esophageal squamous cell carcinoma M staging.
