Abstract
Limited disease small-cell lung cancer responds well to concurrent chemoradiation
therapy (CCRT), but shows high relapse rate and short RFS. We aimed to evaluate tumor
metabolic activities measured using FDG-PET as a prognostic factor and analyze its
relationships with markers of tumor biologic behavior.
